Crashing California

Well hello to everyone =) I know it's been a while (I think I'm begining to start all my blogs this way!) I feel like time just really flies now ... I don't know if it's a "getting older" thing or just a busyness thing ... at any rate, it's been about a week and a half I guess. We had the American "May-Long" weekend last weekend, and I completely did EVERYTHING I always want to do, work out, sing, worship, paint, chill ... just relax. On Saturday I talked to my mom, who is planting her garden right now, and was trying to explain the flowers around here. So, this picture is for her and our conversation, which revolved around pansies (mom bought some pansies, cause she said they reminded her of me =)) On Saturday I also ventured to the art supply store that we have by our house. It's conveniently located right beside my most favourite (note Canadian spelling) fair trade/organic food store : Trader Joes. (moment of reflection). I hadn't real...

This weekend was truly a blessed one. We tripped down to San Diego on Saturday (I went early on the train) for Andy and Laura's housewarming/birthday parties (Laura's birthday is our Anniversary -- April 29, Andy's is exactly one month later -- May 29th). Mira is getting soooo BIG! 6 months old, and getting bigger and chubbier every time we see her! (Laura cutting the Birthday Cake) (The "Girls", Erin, Laura and Me, ofcourse) (Spending some quality time with Mira in the morning -- I think this photo looks like Jay and Mira are having a meaningful conversation) (Jay affectionately calls this shot "His Entourage", hangin' with Caper and Mira) We spent the night and the next day toured around our "old stompin grounds" in Point Loma (where we lived when we first came down) We went to Sunset Cliffs and had a picnic on the rocks and enjoyed the view ... and the amazing blessings that have come our way -- Wonderful Friends, a beautiful place to li...

So, I've been feeling bummmed out lately cause alot of my friends who have blogs haven't posted in like, FOREVER ... until I realized its been about half a month since I've blogged as well, so I thought, I'd better get on this. The sole reason (well, really not sole reason at all) but the reason I think I haven't is simply I am crazy busy. Working all day only leaves so much free time at night. Work (my own work) is picking up again and I'm at the point where I would be busy pretty much 4-6 hours if I was at home. But I am not. Work (Jenny Work) is busy this week, mainly because my supervisor is on holidays, so ALL the work is falling on me, and I'm trying my best to "brown nose" (sort of) and get everything done and cleared. If one person were doing this job on a normal basis, it would be comfortably busy that's for sure. Work here (as I type I'm waiting for Jay to come pick me up) is going pretty well. I've def. had my ups and downs ...

Some pictures from when Jay's parents came down at the end of March, I know these are crazy late, my apologies -- enjoy! Till Next Blog ~ a.
