Oh hai. The blog is back, no ill effects from the digital flu (i.e. I think Bluehost let their drives fail). So many people were knocked out, and you’d think Bluehost would send courtesy emails so as not to cause a huge panic. They did respond to my “Bluehost broke my blog” tweet fairly quickly, which at least is something.
I wish I could climb this tree, but I’m a terrible tree climber and I think the spindly branches are too skinny to hold weight anyway. I probably couldn’t get up on one without a ladder because the closest ones to the ground are still feet above my head. I already tried. In heels. Of course.
I’ve settled for balancing on this downed branch. It’s almost like climbing a tree, I swear.

I use Bluehost too. They didn’t respond to my Tweet but I did use the word “shitty.” Love that Simply Vera jacket.
Kimberlee Van Der Wall says
I want to go on a fun photoshoot!
Mia says
Agreed with basically everybody else–adorable. Ugh, and that golden light. Too awesome.
Kristin & Megan says
I used to love climbing trees when I was little. Sweet memories!
Alex Elizabeth says
I’ve always been a terrible tree climber. Couldn’t even do it when I was younger!
Jeannie says
Too cute Alex!!
Bravoerunway says
I am glad to hear that they responded to your tweet! Your bag is amazing and as always these are gorgeous photos!
Megan Zietz says
we have so many trees, I guess it’s time to start climbing again!
Loren Cline says
I haven’t climbed a tree since I was about 15. I’m putting that on my ‘to do’ list.
Love these shots! You are such a cutie, glad you didn’t lose any data to the downed host. Is bluehost pretty trustworthy otherwise? I’ve been thinking about moving servers when my hosting is up next year.
Alex Elizabeth says
Nooooo don’t do it, anything but Bluehost! Okay, I kid. They’re not that bad, but there are definitely better. I actually think GoDaddy is a really reliable one.
Tinfoil Tiaras says
What adorable photos- I’m not a very good tree climber (not like Katniss from Hunger Games, that’s for sure!) Love your wedges and the striped top- too cute!
Fashion By Alicia says
I am so glad you are back!! I have never been able to climb a tree even when I was little. I think I was always too scared that I would get hurt. I love those boots.
Lyddiegal says
glad the blog is back!
if i could get two feet up a tree i’d consider that a major victory.
Alex Elizabeth says
So would I! I’d love to be able to sit on a tree branch and take photos. But yeah, not happening.
laura says
YAY! I’m glad the blog is back up! I really love these photos, Alex! That first one is really cute! I suck at any physical activity that requires coordination. Tree-climbing is totally out of the question for me.
christine says
Not a tree climber either…but you balanced on the branded nicely! Great photos!
Alex Elizabeth says
I also fell off the branch more than a few times, haha.
christine says
Ok I’m just seeing that I made a big typo – I meant to say “balanced on the branch nicely” . As long as you were able to get an awesome pic – that’s all that matters Alex and no scrapes and bruises haha.
Nnenna says
Hehe, these pictures are so cute! I’ve never been a tree climber either, but that’s because I don’t like physical activity and I don’t like getting dirty! haha
Alex Elizabeth says
I would love to climb trees, but I’m just really bad at it. I was definitely goofing around when I took these– no neighbors around to see me.
