It’s not that things have gotten less hectic around here–we’ve had two back to school nights and a dentist appointment this week– it’s just that I started drawing the line at shit that drags the little ones out in the 105 degree heat.

Unfortunately, I’ve got SOOOOO much to tell you, and such a short time to do it. I’ll stick with happy things again today–not… Read More

Okay–while I’m waiting to see if my pictures will post, I’ll give you some random stuff that made us laugh: 1.
