Ok, ok so I’m a liar. I really thought I would blog…I planned to blog…I took pictures of ideas in preparation for blogging…I just never got around to actually doing it. It’s not my fault, of course. You can blame it on my family. We’ve spent the last month out West hanging out with my [...]

In addition to being a bit sleep deprived (thanks to my chubby little 3-month old), I’ve also moved to a new house and embarked on a cross-country road trip with my family since my last post. [...]
