Vacation? What vacation??

It is so wonderful to be home! For the last three weeks, my family and I have been on a whirlwind trip out west. Don't get me wrong! I love vacation and spending that time with my family, but to be able to take a shower in something other than a two foot square box, that's amazing. Or, to be further than eight feet away from two bickering girls who have grown tired of each other on the third day of the trip, THAT is amazing!

But other than the little things that make you miss home, it was such a wonderful and beautiful trip! I saw things that are so utterly breathtaking and did things that are sooooooooo out of my comfort level {and am completely proud of myself for doing them.} I am not an outdoorsy kind of girl, and I spent just about all of the time outdoors.

I took so many pictures and couldn't even come close to sharing them all, but over the next week I will share my favorites in between the crafty posts.

But now, I get to go back to a regular routine {not really regular, cause we have a couple of great new things going on with the people in our house right now} and I get to go back to work {have I every told you how much I love my work? I know, I have, but it is such an awesome place with some pretty awesome people!}

For now, I will leave you with the first couple of pics:
