I finally made it back home from North Carolina!  Phew!  It took me 14 hours to get there, it was one nightmare of a trip getting there with crazy turbulence, missed flights and sitting on the runway forever.  I arrived there much later than scheduled.  I went to Greensboro, NC for a Photography Workshop and it was awesome!  I feel like I have 40 brand new friends after this weekend, it was so much fun to sit around and talk shop with people who have the same passion for photography.  We even sat in the driveway of the hotel one night at midnight for a Photoshop jam session.   What a bunch of nerds we were!

Oh and I have to tell you, I have found a new bed that I must buy.  The Marriott has one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in.  Gone are those scary germy old school bed spreads, they now have awesome high thread count bedding and the mattress, well it’s to die for.  You can even buy it!  I told my husband I think we have found our next bed.  Check it out: http://www.shopmarriott.com/index.aspx

Here are a few shots from the weekend:

isnt this little one the sweetest thing ever, she told me she wanted to come and visit me in California!

So now I’m frantically trying to get everything together for our family vacation on Friday.  Everyone say prayers, cross your fingers, chant, whatever you do, that my children will cooperate and behave on the 5 1/2 hour flight to Maui.  This is our first “real” vacation in ages and the kids are so excited to go.  My daughter keeps asking each day if it’s “time to go to the airport”.  Too cute!

I’ll be blogging from Hawaii sharing some photos.  This is my first time to go there, even though I’ve traveled to so many other amazing places, this is my first time visiting Hawaii.
