{ j u n e } 1/2

Hello, my chickadees! I know, I know, I owe you all an explanation of where I've been. I simply dumped you with a truck load of pictures then disappeared for a good while. How could I? <slaps self on wrist repeatedly>

Well, enough abusing. I'm back (for now), right? The truth is I've been away visiting second home in lovely Carolina (the southern one). It's been good and fun. But alas, all good things must come to an end. It was beautiful while it lasted. (CHEESE FEST ALERT).

Anyway. I've filled up my social interaction tank for the rest of the year just from the past two weeks, so instead of talking, you can have pictures. After all, that is why you visit this blog, right?

A little explanation for the next picture. Most of you that read this blog know that our family lived in South Carolina for a brief time. Though it was only a few years, I fell in love with the place and most importantly, the people there. Naturally, I wanted to make this trip special and surprise some of my best friends. After much fibbing and with the help of a few loyal comrades as well as her mother, I had set up a plan to surprise one of my bffs. I crouched in a car, hair and sweat clinging to my face, for at least thirty minutes waiting for her to arrive. My sister, J, sat in the back with me, waiting to take pictures. A's reaction? Priceless.
