so it's been a pretty busy week and half. last weekend W's dad and stepmom were supposed to come out for a visit, but their flight got cancelled. anyone who books a flight on american via expedia should really double check their flight reservations, cuz this happened to me too!! anyway, we were planning to take them up to estes park and the rocky mountain national forest, to take a little drive up the highest paved road in the US, topping out at over 12,000 feet above sea level. so we decided to just go anyway. it was really cold at the top, at least a 30 degree difference from the bottom of the mountain. we were a little too late to catch the changing colors in the mountains, but it was cool to see just the same.



then last monday i started my new position, but since only 3 of us from my team are actually in our area, we didn't have too much to do. we still don't have any new loan files, so for now, we're all just trying to enjoy this "down time" while we can!

this past weekend we were back in the bay area, and i saw my friends' babies and also witnessed M & S tie the knot! woohoo! it was great to see my friends, and all the new babies. we had a great time at the wedding! and then finally got to spend some time with my parents on sunday before heading back. these trips always seem to fly by so fast, but at the same time, it's always good to be home. home, sweet home.

here's L's newest baby boy (my godson's new baby brother! and he's so protective of him, already showing what a great big brother he's going to be!). and me and T...he's getting so big!


and me with I's baby girl (the only girl of all my friends' babies):


and G with her baby boy, I:


and last, here are a few pics from the wedding...


and now it's back to work. things are still slow, but i'm not complaining. and i can focus on my knitting once again. which reminds me, i need to do a knitting update (i know how much you love those!).
