Oh my gosh, I seriously can not wait until this weekend. We are heading about 1.5 hours away to pickup our puppy from Lonestar Doodles (take a look at their Facebook pages – the cutest doodle pictures ever). Matt and I have been discussing a dog for years, but he has always resisted. A lot […]
2018 Holiday Checklist & Calendar
Another holiday season is upon us. Am I the only one who feels like I JUST put away last year’s Christmas decorations? Maybe because we just moved and I did just put Christmas Decorations in the attic?? We are going to try for a simpler Christmas this year. But even a simple Christmas will go […]
