… spent a lot of time walking and eating, but still finding time to do dishes, laundry, sweep, shower, sleep, drink tea, shop for groceries, talk on the phone, message until late night on Facebook, listen to new music, donate books to the library (and walk dogs with Caleb in the process).

Now I need to finish all the crafts I have around the house – painting, knitting, weaving, photos, sewing, cleaning, fixing, planning, and prepping for the move to Bahrain – but that’s another post as I talk about my feelings (excited), questions from family and friends, and discuss why I’m the only spouse going (we’re the only ones happily married). I had fun in Vegas for three and a half days. I’ve had fun in San Diego over the last two years while I was here. I will have fun in Bahrain (in my gorgeous air-conditioned villa by the sea).

  1. I opted out because it didn’t have straps, but I think with some over-the-shoulder thing I could’ve pulled it off. Thanks, I love them too!

    I think the pics are great and I love your bird fire extinguisher, not sure on the dress but I do love the boots

    Aww…saw you wore the shoes you bought in Vegas. Who would of thought that they’d be cheaper there then in Cali. I love your photos. You are truly an artist behind the lens.
