i am sooo tired.

got back wednesday night from london. went to work today. i was working really hard trying to catch up all day. then our servers went down and i was forced to go home. meaning tomorrow i'll be at work till forever! oh well... hopefully i'll have the weekend to myself so i can recover.

london was amazing. i'm proud of myself for putting this trip together from flights, hotel, local transportation to the entire itinerary! i packed a lot in and every night we were exhausted from walking. we treated outselves during our last night in london and went to see wicked, which was as good as i thought it would be. the exchange rate really sucked so my next travel destination has got to have a weaker currency haha.

i uploaded all the pictures in facebook; they are in 3 parts. click below pictures to view!

goodbye march... hello april  it's about time! march was such a slow month and way too cold 

i am not motivated to update xanga anymore. everyone and everything is on facebook anyway.

i have this week to decide if i want to buy a new camera or not. and if so, which one? or shoud i just suck it up and stick with my ancient, kinda messed up samsung? but i don't want my crappy camera to ruin all the potential beautiful pictures i can take while on vacation.

woohoo... my first snow day @ work! our office has never closed even with raging snow/ice storms. i guess today is different because by the time i woke up @ 7am, a good 4-5 inches of snow already accumulated. i'm pretty sure it's around 7-9 inches now. it's so nice to have the day off; that means i only had a 3 day work week! even though i'm stuck @ home, i was very productive and got a lot done. i even watched the netflix movie that's been sitting on the table forever. i guess now i'll do a little recap of what i've been up to...

2/9-2/10 was spent in atlantic city doing something really fobby

2/14 was valetines day. at work, we use every excuse possible to have a party, so everyone brought in goodies. what did we stuff ourselves with? sugar cookies (made by my sister), cupcakes (with whipped cream and dipped in chocolate), 7-layer cookie bar, some peanut butter/chocolate bar, cheesecake, and lastly a 3-layer dip (cheese, salsa, guacamole) with chips. then for dinner i had crabcakes and steak... mmm!

then i spent the last weekend upstate as counselor for the youth winter retreat. it was exhausting but i'm really glad to have the opportunity to serve again. there were more counselors this year, and i had a lot of fun learning how to play nerts with the teens ! i was really humbled & inspired through talking, sharing and praying with kids that have such a heart for God.

happy 2nd birthday, penny! i can't imagine life without her by my side
