Good-bye 2011, Hello 2012!

Well, it's been an interesting end to 2011, in regards to this blog and my lack of posting. Nakia's "work" computer, a Mac book, had an untimely death in the beginning of December and took with it about 2-3 months worth of pictures :( I try not to think about it or I get teary-eyed. It made us realize that we were not doing a good job of backing things up onto our external hard drive and also grateful that I had not deleted about 2 months worth of pictures from our cameras! Unfortunately, some of Emerson's 1st birthday pictures & videos are now lost forever. It's sad to think about. But I don't want to start the new year on this down note....

To substitute our lost computer, we are reviving my Toshiba laptop and will be outfitting it with more power and memory! Plus, we backed everything up that is currently on it. We hope in the near future to purchase the parts of a desktop computer that Nakia will build with the help of his wonderful friend, Rich Miller, who has also helped immensely in our computer woes! So, I just wanted to explain why I had not been updated our family blog. I hope to be back soon with beautiful pictures from the months of October-December :) And of course, the start of a fresh, new year! Thanks for being a part of our blogging family!
