just checking in...

I can't believe I haven't even logged on since January.... so much has happened that I'm not really quite sure where to begin but it's a rare Saturday night when I'm actually sitting at home alone and I feel like I should post something. 

So here's what's happened since January...

I'm still dating Chris and have never been happier. He is absolutely amazing and I'm madly in love with him! 

I still work at Michels and I enjoy my job. I get to do fun things like plan the company picnic, work at golf outings and design ads/calendars/signs/brochures.

My little sister got married! The wedding was perfect and she was the most beautiful bride... I got to spend the entire day with her and had so much fun!

and last but not least... I turned (gulp) 30 in August. Chris and I took a week off work and headed to northern wisconsin. My parents have a camper on a little plot of land in the middle of the Nicolet National Forest that we went to a lot this summer. We spent every day out on the boat fishing and swimming. That night we went out with some friends and I survived my 1st day in my 30's. It was a beautiful week and made me actually look forward to the upcoming years...

Obviously more than 4 things happened since January but sometimes pictures are better than words so here's a few that better illustrate 2012...

 So here I am... alive and well but just not spending much time online (with the exception of pinterest!). I have almost 900 unread emails but I still have tanlines from hours spent laying outside under the sun. Even with the cold approaching, I'd rather be outside than sitting on the couch with my macbook. I'd like to get back into blogging as a creative outlet... I do miss writing.... I just don't know if I can sit still long enough.....
