real world math.

1 very busy Etsy shop + 1 impending closing date on a new house + 3 weeks of traveling + 1 dead laptop = this blogger's long absence from the interwebs.

Now we're back at home (well, our home for one more week) and my laptop seems to be working again, so I'm taking a moment's break from packing to share a recent family photo, taken at Paciugo Gelato in the Mall of America on my birthday this past Wednesday:

I'm so classy.

Posting will still be spotty for a bit - but I'm here and looking forward to playing catch up in the new year! Happy 2013, everybody :)

    A few long overdue things:
    1. It was so good to see you when you were in town - sorry I was busy and couldn't chat longer! Next time for sure...!
    2. Good luck on the house - can't wait to hear more about it.
    3. I am absolutely, completely in love with that sweater of yours (the one you're wearing in the picture) - if I was looking at you funny when you saw me it was because I was trying not to drool over it...hehe! Where did you find it?

      I've been wearing that sweater non-stop since I got it for Christmas! It's a vintage find from this great Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/backdoorvintage

    So many exciting things. Happy New Year and Happy Birthday! So glad to hear that the computer is up and running again, and I hope that all goes smoothly with the house.

    We've been considering a little long weekend trip to the Twin Cities to see some friends and I was trying to decide if the Mall of America would be too much with a toddler. It seems like you guys had lots of fun.

    You have been missed, but it sounds like the reasons for your absence are all positive. How exciting for you! I love that photo, and the way you and your husband seem to be expressing completely opposite emotions. I hope the look on your face is a reflection of how your birthday was!
