If I had a million dollars...

I would build my mom a house right next to mine.

Well I guess I would build myself a house right next to hers.

Or, I would just build two houses right next to each other. And my mom and I would live in them. Maybe I'd even build a few other houses and invite the rest of my family to live with me too.

Or I'd move to Hawaii and buy a whole island and let all my friends and families come live in cute little cottages.

Wait, I'm off topic. The point is, when I'm with my family they make me smile and laugh. You can see what I'm talking about from these pictures taken a few summers ago at a family reunion. Where we couldn't shower. Don't judge me by my horrible hair.





All of these plans were determined after spending the weekend with my mom in B-town when she came to visit. It was fun. And went by much too quickly. Hence the making of millions and building dream houses.

I'm feeling stressed. The beginning of the school year. Decisions to be made. Family situations to deal with.

It's like a mountain right? Once I've climbed up the downhill climb will be easy? Please tell me it's true. I need something to look forward too.

Surprise, surprise. I took the summer off. Off of work, off of stress and off of blogging.

I had good intentions. Just not good enough.

I'll sum up my entire summer in just a few words:

boston. reading. maryland. friends. family. georgia. nieces. nephews. american fork. movies. projects.

It was fun and busy and went by way too quickly. I'm back in the swing of things at school which means i'll be back in the swing of things at blogging. Just wait.
