2012

My blog is like my journals. Big gaps of time unaccounted for...so much has happened but I'll just start from here.
Here's a family photo my Mom took recently. :)

My poor pitiful neglected blog

I have been a bad blogger.
And I have slacked off on taking pictures too!
This blog was what motivated me to take pictures! See the above picture of me? I had that mole removed back in November 2009.
I haven't loaded any newer pictures of me onto my computer.
I blame it all on my IPhone. I can load pictures onto Facebook from the phone so it's easy!!!
I guess I figured there weren't many people actually reading this thing anyhow!
But so what! I need to journal better. I shall improve

Nauvoo

Family trip to old nauvoo....

Nauvoo is awesome

We went on the Trail of hope walk...
And visited the Visitor's Center...
My Mom and Dad made the whole trip possible for all of us. They're so wonderful.
My hat says "Katie the great"...yeah, I amde it myself. We went to this "Sunset on the Mississippi" musical performance. It rocked.
Here we are at the end of the Trail of Hope. There's a memorial for all the pioneers who left Nauvoo but didn't make it to Utah.
