take me back

I’m back! I didn’t actually mean to go anywhere but life got in the way and blogging took a backseat. If you’re still reading, I apologize for the hiatus. I enjoy this little outlet for creativity and for documenting little details so I hope to get back into it. So, what have we been up to?

+We used this picture for our Christmas card at our annual tree chopping. This farm is like heaven for Logan so it is very difficult to get a pose. It’s like heaven for us too. Beautiful day – you can see it wasn’t nearly as cold then as it is now.

+We both celebrated 30th birthdays! Hard pill for me to swallow, I will admit, but since it’s here now I think I have made my peace with it. The 20s were wonderful but I’m ready for the next chapter. I had a pizza dinner out with friends and a crabcake dinner out with family, went for a hike with the dog, and had chocolate croissants for breakfast. (You know I love food.) I have a spa massage with my name all over it in the next few weeks and Hubby will be taking me to NYC for a day to see Wicked and eat more food.

+In short, because three months (four?) is a long time to update on, things are going swimmingly and we’re great. Shawn is plugging away at school, one of the hardest things he’s ever done, and I could not be more proud of him. We value our time together, even if it’s spent together on the couch (him studying, me reading/Facebooking/asking for a foot massage) or making a simple meal at home. I wouldn’t wish to be anywhere else.

Hope your new year is off to a great start as well. Happy 2012!
