alpaca.. what it is yo..?

( General )

In the past week I have heard this word mentioned like 3 times.. seriously.. it’s like peewee’s word of the day or something.  So I thought it would make for an interesting blog topic!

Happy 30th Lara!

( General )

Today is Lara’s Lou’s big day.. you know the big 3-0. She has been dreading it a little because it’s that age that throws you into adult hood (i feel the same way as i creep up on the horizon of my 20’s) but this is a great time to look back on who you are, where you’ve come thus far and where […]

I made fast friends with the Trainmaster who told me stories as we winded through the […]
