Slow Painful Death

My camera died. It was a slow miserable painful death. I tried to convince Aaron that being a blogger without a camera is like being a roofer without a ladder. He kindly reminded me the one is a hobbie and the other one puts food on the table. Point well taken.

The ironic thing is, Aaron and I just put ourselves on the get-out-of-debt budget. Which means no credit cards and anything extra goes to pay off what we owe. Had my camera died last month, I probably would have just gone and charged a new one. This month, no can do.

What is a girl with a blog to do? Well, the good news, is I have still have thousands of pictures stored on my computer (with an external hard drive thanks to Scott, my brother-in-law and personal technical support guy.) I'll just go back in time. They will be like vintage posts. Won't that be fun for you!

Camera Amnesia

Last weekend, a friend of ours from Texas visited us. Julian has been at BYU for the past year and came up to see us before heading home for the summer. We had fun talking with him and hearing of his experiences.

This weekend, the Rawlings family spent Friday night and Saturday with us. They are also friends from Texas. It was so fun to see them again. Their kids are getting so big. All the kids had a great time playing together again.

I must have had camera amnesia. I didn't snap a single photo. That is so depressing. Sometimes I have so much fun I forget to take pictures. I'm grateful for memories. Actual memories are better than photos anyway. (If you can't tell, I'm trying to console myself).
