one photo from israel

My mom is making her way through our Israel photos and sent this one to me. I can't wait to see the rest!
p.s. I wore this skirt from j. crew so many times on my trip! It's so soft it feels like you're wearing pajamas.

The aids at work turn on country music videos in the dining room during breakfast so sometimes I get to catch glimpses. Here's a video I caught the other day. Happy Monday/Memorial Day!

missing him

Is there anything sweeter than a nephew that sat in my lap for a whole ten minutes while I read and reread this picture book to him?

Nope, nothing.

Isn't it amazing that in less than 24 hours you can be on the other side of the world? 16 hours of flying time and I'm back from Israel. All photos are in Oregon with my mum so I'm awaiting their arrival before I can post. It was an amazing 2 weeks! Happy Monday!

a few things

// I'm leaving the states tomorrow morning for Israel. I never thought tomorrow would come and now it's almost come too fast. Two weeks will surely fly by.

// Isn't time a funny thing? I told my dad the other day that time seems to be moving so quickly and he replied by telling me that's how you know you're getting old.

// The five guy's burger I ate last night was like heaven. The company wasn't all that bad either. :)

// My little sister leaves for India while I'm gone. I won't see her for a whole six or so weeks! The older we get, the closer we become. I'm a big fan of the phenomenon.

// A good song.

photo of the week

I'm going to brag for a second. This photo is awesome! I must confess though, this was the mistake. I snapped this one and then realized it was way over exposed and then adjusted the settings and made another attempt. But go figure, the mistake turned out way better!

then and now

My little sister Danielle. Isn't she beautiful? She went from holding great grandma's hand to holding the hand of a boy. I'm ok with it, but I'm sure my parents are shaking their heads wondering where the time went.
