The end, and a beginning 2 Nov 2012 | 01:40 am
Hi friends, This will be my last post on this blog. It's so bittersweet and just strange to say good-bye to this space. It's served me well for the last 3 and a half years (how has it been that long?...

I mentioned in my post yesterday that our little family headed out to the pumpkin patch this weekend, the very same pumpkin patch we went to for Cheeks' first October. Of course I had to compare last...
