Hi friends. Today is a good day…today is like a Friday, as Geoff has the day off from work.  After sleeping in, we began today with homemade applesauce muffins and an episode of TLC’s Say Yes To the Dress.  I wouldn’t say it’s Geoff’s FAVORITE show….but he tolerates it enough to watch it with me.

The week before last, Geoff and I were able to take a little trip to Chicago, IL to A) celebrate Geoff’s birthday, B) celebrate our 3rd anniversary, and C) visit Geoff’s family.  We stayed downtown for 3 nights and then headed over to the family in a suburb of Chicago for another 3 nights.     […]

Well, friends…..year 28 of my life has come and gone.  On Easter Sunday, I turned 29.  How in the world did this happen?  Most days, it seems like I should only be 22 or something.   Anyway, my 29th birthday was pretty darn good fantastic…in fact, I’d say it was my most favorite birthday yet….all […]

So………would you like to know why it is that I had been MIA for a few weeks there back? Watch this: —————————————————————————————— Yes, it’s true.
