Throwback Thursday #1

This is my first "Throwback Thursday" post. I kind of like the reason to reminisce. The hardest part is thinking of what part of my past I really want to throwback too! One year ago I was eagerly counting down the days till my wedding. My family was getting all packed up to drive to Oregon where the wedding was going to be. It was a good time.

But that is not what I wanted to focus on today. In celebration of the first throwback ever I wanted to go ALL the way back. I'm talking 21 years back. Back to the beginning of my life. Is that a far enough throw for ya? Plus I am pretty vain when it comes to my baby pictures. Chubby cheeks, cute smile, what's not to love?

Okay, vain moment over... Thank you for scrolling!

And We're Back!

I have been so remiss in posting on my blog. I am not sure why. Probably because I feel life at the Parker's has been somewhat uneventful lately. I haven't felt the need to share the on-goings of my life recently. I have indeed been still crafting, trying new recipes, and spending lots of time in front of the TV (i.e. had plenty of time to blog).

Here is an assorted list of what I have been up to lately:
- Made a wreath. It is so cute and perfect for summer!
- Bought a plane ticket to Oregon!! So excited to visit my gre
en home again.
- Taught a little class to some of my friends on how to curl hair.
-Went on a hike with my best friend Doug. We got on a totally wrong trail and took an hour long detour straight up a hill. Needless to say my buns have never been so sore!
- Made dinner for my wonderful mother on Mother's day.
- Have been attending a Zumba class. Still unsure how I feel about the whole Zumba thing though, but that is another blog post topic.
- Bought a new swimsuit!
-Skyped with my brother who is in  Ukraine.
- Tried to go off of sugar for 4 weeks (Hey at least I tried).
-Had a Saturday Slurpee run last week after sunbathing by the pool.
-Went to Lagoon in the rain.
-Tried sushi (raw fish!) fir the first time.
-Finally bought a bedspread for our bed
-Tried to grow a tomato plant- it died. Oops.

I guess I have been a little busy. I have been really bad at taking pictures though.Sorry! Always room for improvement.

See ya next time! Which will hopefully be soon.
