Life Lately!

Just a little forewarning, not only is this post picture heavy, per usual, but its extra loaded today. likely, because I haven’t done one of these before turkey day and I thought that I would give a rough recap of it all. and I do mean rough, this is only a sliver of the last month or so, and it’s loaded with pictures of my kids, because, well…the holidays are even more magical with them around!
