Christmas Decorating
It’s that time of year again, the ground has started turning white, the roads are covered in slush and people are ringing bells at all the local stores. That means it’s time to decorate for Christmas — well, almost. Matt & I are getting a real tree again this year, and we are going to…
Read MoreConference anyone?

This week, by special request, we are having a “Lack of Fashion Friday.” For this special post, I’ll be pulling out some old photos of me in some not so fashionable outfits. My lack of fashion started at an early age, thanks in part to my mom. Not that this dress wasn’t fashionable when she…
