Four years

We were outside in the fall sunshine again today. In celebration of the beautiful weather, yes, but also in celebration of our family. Four years ago today this little guy flew into our lives. It’s been a magical time. I love being a mom. I love being his mom. I […]

So many reasons to love fall

Gorgeously sunny weekends is just one of them. Last weekend hit 80 degrees. This weekend was more typical. Long sleeves and a jacket. Perfect romping in the leaves and exploring weather. Scott drove us over to the west coast and we explored Montague and Pentwater. Dev was a bit bummed […]

Look…a picture!

And it’s of little ole me. 😉 I’ve been carrying my camera around in the new fantasmic camera bag I got last week, so it was within reach as Dev and I sat in the car after Gymco tonight. He was munching on some mini rice cakes and we were […]
