i'm back! and california was fabulous.

Finally! "My boyfriend's back and I'm gonna be in trouble. Day la, day laaaaaaaa...." Besides, "breaking up is hard to do..." Ok. enough with the lyrics.

As you can see, my blog and I are back together. The courtship will continue.  You were, like, sooooo worried.

Anyway. Without further adieu, I bring you the pictures of our stupendous California retreat. All courtesy of the 'rents. I have some killer awesome 'rents.  And by the way, I had like a millions pictures to go through, and those were just mine. I haven't even touched the ones from the rest of my family. Collages were the only way to go. Enjoy!

it's not you, it's me

dear blog,

it's been a while hasn't it? i hope you don't think i broke up with you for good. once upon a time i made sure to schedule weekly dates with you {and sometimes more!} in order to maintain a healthy and vibrant relationship. we had a good love going on, didn't we?

and then may happened.

and then life happened. and then i went on vacation. and then i got sick. and then my house fell into clutter and filth oblivion. and then my baby became mobile {eek!}. and then my computer got sick. and then it died. and now i'm still waiting for it to get back from the doctor's. crossing my fingers that the hard drive was salvageable.

stupid windows vista service pack. luckily most of my pictures were stored on my external hard drive. but still.

anyway, so much has changed and i want, no need, to share it with you. i miss you, my blog. take me back as soon as my bff computer gets fixed?

yours forever and always,

jen
