Happy Holidays.  After 3 years of use, my I-Photo disappeared from my Mac along with all my pictures.  And stupid me has no back-up.  Any ideas on how I can find my pictures?  Thanks.

Happy Holidays to you too.
What exactly is missing?
The iPhoto icon in the Dock, that you used to launch iPhoto?
The iPhoto application from the "Applications" folder?
Your iPhoto library from your "Pictures" folder?
To check what is still left, click on the looking glass icon in the upper right corner of your screen and type "iPhoto" into the Spotlight search field. This should find anything with iPhoto in its name. Does it show an iPhoto application? Then click it to launch it.
But before you do anything else, I'd strongly suggest to get yourself a backup disk and make a Time Machine backup of your machine right now. You have already noticed, how risky it is, not to have a working  backup. The best computer will crash one day.
