This is a snowflake I made using the online, […]
Lucky for us, we live far enough south that the winter storm that raced up the east coast this weekend was only rain, but something tells me there are quite a few kids that are out of school today thanks to the snow!! Sure it’s fun for the first day or so, but being snowed […]
We have done it again! We have managed to wait until 48 hours before leaving on a family vacation to plan, book, and arrange our vacation. I don’t know why, but this absolutely seems to be the way things work around here.
We have decided to go to Pittsburgh. Why? Some of the family lives there […]
