What a wonderful week of fun!  Got a little bit of everything: fat people on a plane (very few as we were en route to Denver, but of course next to me), Cousin Ian, legos, Winter Park, Eye Trip, A-Basin, my old Moondance counselor- Kyle Jackson!, Denver, the real Chubby's mexican with ridiculously heavy burritos, Copper Mountain, my birthday!, Boulder, feathers in my hair, some more Winter Park with more snow, vegan Thanksgiving dinner- yummm, Red Rocks, and back home to humid hotlanta for a lovely birthday breakfast with fabulous friends and family, UGA defeating Tech with the happy family.  I'd say it was a great week!  And, I'm thankful for all of it!! 

girl's night in!

sunset car ride

Caroline's virgin voyage to Trader Joe's!

Emily, Caroline, Me

After a beautiful car ride but major let down- the corn maze was closed!- we (Emily, Caroline, and I) decided to have a night in, cooking, baking, laughing.  Our menu consisted of festive pumpkin tacos with veggies and pumpkin seeds, banana bread, and cookies made from the leftover pumpkin filling. (the curry was a nice touch.)  And what a great time it was!

first steps

I've finally decided to take the challenge of writing and updating a blog of my own.  Being a slow reader myself, I'm going to try to have more pictures rather than "thousand words"s.  However, I am notorious for lacking in my photo uploading skills, so this may be a problem...  Needless to say, I will try my best!
Happy readings!


And the reason for starting now is that I have finally finished typing out my journal from China/Tibet this summer. [see the china 2010 page for that]
