back from outer space!

so it's been a little while, huh?
I am officially in SUMMER mode now! This past Wednesday was my last day of work, and I have to tell you, I can't believe I made it. what a year. and now it's DONE. Thank God.

But just today I've actually begun relaxing. Thursday, Daniel and I drove a big van to Ikea (near Detroit) in order to pickup an entire kitchen for a new show some Calvin students will be shooting this Fall. I didn't exactly have to go, but I'm not one to pass-up a chance to shop at Ikea.

Then Friday and Saturday we went camping at Warren Dunes State Park with Conrad. That was a blast, but between our makeshift sleeping bags (a couple of blankets on the ground), Conrad being protective against every noise in the park, and a surprise rain shower about 3:00 am, it was a sleepless adventure. Saturday we ended up driving to my parents house and hanging out all afternoon.

So, finally today, we ended up taking almost a 4 hour nap this afternoon! And I'm still sleepy tonight! But I think we're off to a great start. Here's some pictures of our fun times for now...
