I’d like to apologize for being so scarce on my blog lately. Between working, house guests, doctors appointments and the anticipation of transferring again soon… it’s been quite difficult to find time for any fun, creative antics. I am seriously ready for some DIY projects, thrift store fun and creativity!!

But for now… I have to rest through the weekend. You see, I had my upper wisdom teeth out this morning. Nothing too crazy, but apparently they just want you to rest for several days. They make this mandatory by knocking you out with pain meds. Laying in bed all day watching movies is not a bad thing in my book by any means! It’s been nice, but I do get a little stir crazy. Tomorrow is more resting, but at least I can work a few hours from home the rest of the week when I’m not doped up too heavily. *sigh*

Now you are wondering what’s with the picture of the dog. This was taken a couple years ago near the end of our time in Hawaii. Somehow I caught him mid yawn, and it reminded me of my “fun” morning of strangers poking around my mouth.

Happy rest of your week!

So, after much debating, I’ve decided to rework the theme for Wednesdays… mainly to keep all of you from getting bored. Do you really want to hear about where we live every single Wednesday? Hm. I thought not. Wednesdays are going to be a wild card from now on. While I may post about our lives and where we live or travel, I really like the idea of keeping one day a week open to be about anything and everything.

RIP Where We Live Wednesdays. You had a good one week run.

Today, I wanted to share a couple photos of some fun we had while visiting family in El Paso, Texas this month. This was my first experience with a dune buggy, and I did not want to share the driving of this dune buggy! It was so much fun. Although I was picking sand out of my hair that night, it was an amazing way to spend an afternoon with my husband. Can’t wait to do it again.

Isn’t the desert just lovely? Dustin always jokes that El Paso has a beach. (Just no water!) Next time we’ll have to get some photos of the sunsets, you can’t imagine how amazing they are.

Happy Wednesday!
