annual calendar 2019

I want to be writing, but I just realized that I’m late in making my calendar for next year. I try to start thinking about it in October, so that when the 50% off sale comes, I’m ready to hit purchase. But I’ve been out of touch this fall and Cyber Monday caught me by surprise. So for the past 24 hours I’ve been trying to find the right photos to sum up our year — really, an impossible task. Here’s a peek at December with photos from our recent desert camping weekend. I’m sure I’ll change it 3 more times before I’m finally satisfied with it. The gray background looks drab when paired with all the sand.Better, but it still needs something . . .

I realized I don’t have a single photo of the 6 of us together from this past year (fine, I do have one group selfie taken in the lobby of CircusTrix on New Year’s with really bad lighting that is washing out half of the group. Ugh). How did that happen? Because we weren’t ever all together at the same time. We were with Calvin up north, without Josh. Then we were at the beach in Southern CA with Josh, but without Calvin. I am looking forward to fixing that during our Christmas holiday when Calvin gets to come visit for 3 weeks and we will all be in the same place at the same time for a change.

Hopefully I can finish my calendar in the next 24 hours and then write about camping. I know you want to hear the story of how I ended up in a pickup truck with a Pakistani camel herder . . .
