Blog Lovin'

Please excuse my absence. I don't really have a reason for my infrequent posting- just laziness and a lack of creativity.

I feel a bit like I'm relearning to ride a bike- I think getting back into the rhythm of writing is going to take me a few posts but I really actually miss it. I feel left out when I read my favorite bloggers daily post and I don't have one of my own. I've hit a wall but I'm going to just keep plugging away and hopefully it will take back off.

I have a lot going on in the next couple of weeks- plenty of blogging material.

This weekend I am going to Young Life camp with some awesome high schoolers. I am so excited to spend the weekend with these friends and to get to know them on a deeper level- plus have a ton of fun! I think I've made my love of YL camps pretty clear (see here and here).

I have been battling an annoying head/throat/chest cold for a week now and I'm really starting to get irritated by it. I am hoping it's completely gone by the time I leave for camp on Friday because a weekend of late nights and early mornings and running at full power is not going to help! Fortunately, after this crazy fun weekend comes a relaxing holiday!

Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week?! I am taking some nice vacation time and heading out of town on Tuesday after work. Anndd... Peter is coming home with me. This will be our first big holiday together. I am really excited for him to see some of our family seasonal traditions and to sit down to dinner for some of our favorite Thanksgiving dishes- and experience Angel Pie (yes, it is a treat that you don't just eat, you experience it) but more on that later.

Just want to quickly share that I signed up for Bloglovin which is a site/app that allows you to read you favorite blogs on your smart phone. That was always my complaint about blogger- that their website couldn't be navigated on my phone. So now if you're on there Follow my blog with Bloglovin!
