M.I.A...

yes, i've been missing in action so it seems! my parent's came over for dinner last night and my mom looked at my dad and said "did you mention her blog?" i was like "what?" and my dad said he had been checking it and i hadn't posted anything in a long time. i was just surprised that my dad was actually checking my blog! i also got a sweet email from a friend saying she'd been reading my blog all summer and that it was inspiring her to keep a journal for her girls...that was so awesome to hear! i thought to myself last night..."wow, i might actually have seven readers instead of the 5 that i knew of!" LOL! i realized i had bad blogging etiquette because i didn't post something saying i would be gone for awhile...so i apologize for that.

here's the short of it, we left on porter's b-day for our colorado vacation that was only supposed to be one week but it turned into two with me getting to go to california with my mom and sis as a surprise for my grandma's 90th b-day. it unfortunately ended with the unexpected passing of my grandma. so being gone for 2 weeks, dealing with the loss of my grandma, and trying to get caught up and get things "back to normal" around here, oh and did i mention we had only been home a day and then jeremy left for nine days of training in maryland?! oh yeah, it's been a crazy few weeks! i have a lot of stories to tell, a lot of things i need to get out, and my 365 project to get caught up on. the boys start school in 5 days and i'm looking forward to catching up here on my poorly neglected blog.

here's a random pic from our CO vacation...lovin' life!
