Lately I've found myself so full that I've just no room left for words. Sorry 'bout it, and here's a little recap of the past five months, in photos. Yes, this is a cop-out, but it's better than nothing.
July: We got a new baby. Welcome to the family, Prince Harry-Buttons Jones.
 |
| Hi Mom! |
 |
| Who thought I would turn out to be such a menace? |
 |
| I love my brother Ian. Sometimes. |
August: Toured Colorado via rental car with the USA Pro Cycling Challenge. VandeVelde, allez!
 |
| I love Aspen. |
 |
| I also love Cadel Evans, but not enough to wait around for an autograph. |
 |
| VandeVelde in yellow in Aspen. Foreshadowing! |
 |
| We had pretty good seats. |
 |
| We ride fancy bikes, too! |
 |
| VandeVelde (L) vs Leipheimer (Y) in the time trial. |
Also, I turned 27.
Sept: Clay turns 31.
 |
| I like him a lot. |
October: Engaged! Welcome to the family, Jennifer Ann Jones (Jones pending).
 |
| The pretty! |
 |
| You know what's fun, is trying on diamonds at Tiffany. |
 |
| We are getting married at Full Moon Farm. How cute is that? |
 |
| I mean, come on. |
More October: Hurricane Sandy!!! This was the scariest few hours of my life so far. We are okay; New York is not. But New York is pretty used to persevering, at this point.
 |
| Where are you, Manhattan? |
 |
| Need to hang onto the ground so we don't fall off. Nobody is drunk. |
November: We went to Belize. Unintentional engagement-moon; very pretty, lots of bugs.
 |
| Boats at Blackbird Caye. |
 |
| Sunset behind our cabana at Blackbird Caye. |
 |
| Day trip to Half Moon Caye - see definition: island. Idyllic! |
 |
| Clay and Chris snorkeling around Half Moon Caye reefs. |
 |
| The most darling hipster-esque ruins of a 200-year-old lighthouse at Half Moon Caye. |
That's all. Maybe one of these days I'll write you a little story about some of this stuff.
