A couple months ago Dave and I got to sneak over to California together on a little work project. Oh, I am so very grateful for any time I get so spend one-on-one with this guy in the midst of a crazy life. It was a work trip where we…

Speaking of our “little girls,” we got to hang with them over Fall Break. We went to Newport. We basked in all the minutes we could get with this girl: Even though half of our home town was there too, and we had to share her a little 😉 Ha!…

Back in October I had the opportunity to sneak over to San Francisco with my girls. Not my baby girls (they will always be my babies), I’m talking these girls: (oh boy, that picture cracks me up) …plus a few more, and minus a couple in that pic who couldn’t…
