back again . . . and some vacay photos

Hi everyone!! I know it has been a looooooong time since I last posted, and I have seriously been having withdrawals from not blogging!!! In all honesty, I have really meant to - I have TONS of photos, layouts, cards, and enabling to share with everyone, but everytime I sit down to edit the photos something else comes up or I am just not in the mood to do it!!! Yeah, I know, that's no excuse, but seriously I have had the best of intentions! So, for starters, I will share some photos from my recent trip I took with my mom. We went to Seattle, Victoria B.C., Canada, and Las Vegas - and man was it a blast!! Since it is getting late here, I am posting some pics I took at the Butchart Gardens, one of the most amazing gardens I have ever seen!! It was absolutely stunning!! If you ever visit British Colombia - Victoria, to be exact - you have to go visit the gardens. And now the pictures . . .

Amazing, huh?? I love the new camera I got for my birthday {more on that in another post!} And I am totally in love with Adobe PhotoShop Lightroom!! Most of the presets that used to edit the photos were from Kelsey Smith {see her blog link over on the right!} They are AWESOME! The girl knows how to rock the presets!! Okay, well that's it for now. I will be posting some more photos tomorrow, along with some enabling of the new happenings over at Jen Wilson Designs - there are some totally rad new summer things you have to grab up!! Have a good night and I'll see you tomorrow!!
