This beautiful exchange

I will do my best to not go overboard in talking about our little bun in the oven over the next six months. However, I must admit, that will be a hard thing to do. Every morning I wake up and lay still for a few minutes, trying to see if I can feel the [...]

Thanksgiving is just a couple of days away. Feels like it just snuck right up on us. Since we went to Missouri in October, Tony and I will be celebrating Thanksgiving just the two of us. Three, if you count Graham. Well, four, if you count the baby. I’m sure we’ll all end up with [...]

While Tony and I were back in Missouri, we got the chance to ride around in it. It was so much fun! The weirdest part of the vehicle is the ignition [...]

My brother, Derek, got married a couple weeks ago. It is quite possible that I cried more during the ceremony than the bride and groom! I was just so proud of him, of who he has become. I was lucky enough to be a bride’s maid, which really just means that everyone in attendance was [...]
