My word! What has gotten into me, and where have I been?!? Okay. I realize I've been MIA for a month now. But seriously?
I'll give you the quick rundown of what's been going on here at our house.
1. We went to my family reunion in Nampa at my parents' house. It was a ton of fun! I took pictures, but I don't know where they went. I'll have to look for them. I spent the first day sewing in the tent trailer we were staying in, wildly trying to finish the quilt I made for my sister. She had bought it from me at a family auction two reunions ago (that's when I was just barely pregnant with Sami). I thought it would be fun to surprise her with it since one of the activities we were doing was tying quilts for some humanitarian thingy. SO I threw it in the pile of quilts to be tied without telling her and waited to see what happened. It was funny to see her tying her own quilt, but she caught on because she remembered the pattern she had picked out (good memory!) and the color too. Oh well, it was funny for about 30 minutes or so. We got to play on this giant inflatable water slide too! That was a blast! I was so sore the day after though. Ahhhh, good times.
2. I've been going to physical therapy, but finally FINALLY I graduated!!! I feel so much better! I couldn't function before, but now my headaches have stopped and I can lay on my side and use my arm and all sorts of crazy stuff! lol!
3. Taking lots of pictures for people. I don't think I will ever feel entirely comfortable with it, but it does get easier. I really want to be good, but when will I ever feel that I am? It's frustrating.
4. Friends coming to visit! I love having visitors! We get to have doughnuts for breakfast and sugary cereal! All the stuff we don't normally get to eat. Come visit us! We have lots of beds!
5. Gardening! We have hacked down a ton of plants in our backyard and it feels so good! I love being outside and pretending like it's ours, even though we're just renting. Someday we'll have a house (cough, cough ten years cough, cough).
