Well, I'm back. Life has been keeping me pretty busy! Since I last wrote, I've been back to Indiana, Colorado Springs, back to Indiana, down to Florida and back to Indiana again! Of course, now I'm back home in sunny San Diego, where I could not ask for more amazing weather. It would be nice to be in Indy to see all the Super Bowl festivities, though!
Thanksgiving 2011 - Indianapolis
I was reunited with my baby Lolers! It took a few days, but she went right back to following me around and being my little cuddler! It was tough to say bye to her again.
I also got to see my whole extended family for the first time in quite awhile (the last time I'd been home was 4th of July). My grandma has been having some serious health problems since then, so I was most excited to see her! We all went out to dinner before I left at McCormick and Schmick's downtown so that she could get out and see the lights around downtown. It was a lovely quick trip home!
Weekend Trip - Colorado Springs
I made a random trip back to Colorado to visit with Margaux. We had a fun-filled weekend of Christmas celebrations, charity events and cooking! It was great to see her and to exchange gifts and just hang out. As usual, the weekend ended much too soon!
Christmas/New Year's 2011/2012 - Indiana/Florida/Indiana
I flew to Indiana on Christmas Eve, had a whirlwind Christmas Day filled with family, then loaded up the car and headed south with my brother, sister and their respective significant others, Mike and Aly (my parents drove separately). Our car ride was filled with letter games, AWOLNATION, me not sleeping (and thus keeping Jordan awake since he was driving) and old school music.
When we got to Florida, it was a true vacation. We slept in, stayed out late and spent the days on the beach. It was total relaxation! I have no complaints...quality time with family and got to know Mike and Aly better!
Two weekends ago, I had my first visitor here in San Diego. My dad came out for the Carlsbad Half Marathon and I got to show him around! It was so much fun! We went to the USS Midway (since there was a rare rainy day one of the days he was here), experienced the best of San Diego cuisine (including In 'N Out Burger, which Dad just HAD to have!) and explored. We got a taste of theater at the Old Globe in Balboa Park and enjoyed the beautiful oceanside run in Carlsbad. It was sad to say bye to him! I wish I could bring all my family out here!!
That's the update for now...I'll try to be better about updating in the future!
