Computer Woes :(

Obviously, I have been a terrible blogger lately!!! However, there is a reason, not just being busy (which we have been extremely busy!). A few months ago our computer broke and we got a new laptop. At the time of that purchase we were told that our hard drive of our old laptop was still ok. So, the plan was to transfer our pictures onto our new laptop since we never backed them up...I know what you're thinking, you have to back up your pictures!! Trust me...lesson learned : ) Anyway, instead of paying for Best Buy to do the transfer, we purchased a cable that is supposed to transfer files from our old hard drive to our new laptop. Sounds simple enough, but we just can not get it to do that! So, needless to say, we are probably going to end up paying Best Buy to do the transfer for us. To me, pictures are priceless, but we wanted to try the cheaper route!

In the midst of all of this, we had to have the motherboard on our new computer replaced as well, so the pictures I had downloaded since getting it were lost!! I can't bear to lose anymore pictures. So I will not download anymore until I get my old pictures transferred on this computer and in a safe place. How do you all back up your pictures? Do you save/organize them on a web-based site? Just looking for suggestions and how you guys save and organize your pics safely.

On a non-technology note...things at the Pryce home have been good since starting the new year. Most weeks have been full with work, family time, church stuff, visiting friends, working on the house, etc. Even though it's been a mild winter, we are so excited for spring to arrive soon. Logan is almost 8 months old and growing like a weed. Izzy is getting smarter and funnier every day. Hopefully I'll have some new posts and pictures up real soon!
