Remember a few posts back I took a picture of Milo’s broken plate? Well… ‘Another one bites the dust! And another’s ones gone….’ Jaime’s plate broke too. Unfortunately her’s broke dirty so the picture is dirty too. I guess I should take a picture of Alix’s before it actually breaks… Read the rest of this entry »

My friend Audrey was so kind as to take some family photos of us this year. She has some nice places on her property and a decent camera and that is about all I need! Read the rest of this entry »
