M.I.A.

Yes, I admit it. I have been horribly MIA!

This past month has just flown by and already I'm

staring down the barrel of Thanksgiving next week!

WOW!!!

So, I figured I'd post some gorgeous photos from

my roadtrip to Talent, Oregon.

It's nestled in between Ashland and Medford,

on the very Southern border of Oregon.

Be warned: lot's of pics in this post!

I went to visit my bestie Cara

( a.k.a. Care Bear, the Carest of the Bears ).

( this is the baby bear ) Mr. Theo.

Theo just so happens to be the

HAPPIEST baby bear I've ever met!

We celebrated Halloween

( 3 nights in a row )

this is the actual night of Halloween

( me as Snooki )

( me with the entire Jersey Shore crew )

Then took in the gorgeous Autumnal colors of Ashland.

It was such a nice getaway all by myself

( had to leave the Weezer & the Boyfriend home for this trip )

and an even nicer drive through the mountains

in 75 degree weather all the way home!

I jammed all my favorite tunes and the Avant

purred through the mountains like the AWD beauty is 'sposeta.

I'm hoping that this will jumpstart my blogging again,

especially now that the holidays ( and SNOW ) are upon us!

It snowed here ALL DAY and it was gorgeous.

*** YAY FOR SNOW ***

( woods in our backyard, looking down to the stream )

( Miss Weezer running in from pottyin' in the snow )

Hope you all enjoy these beautiful Autumn Photos!

It was honestly beyond-words-gorgeous!!

And when I got home, I got the most

EXCITED, OVER-JOYED,

thought.she.was.gonna.have.a.heart.attack

welcome from the Weez!!

We've been playin' tug-o-war ever since!

( honestly, I think Mama missed the Weez the most! )
