I took classes, drank martinis, participated in my first ever 5K, & wore shoes that absolutely killed my feet: good thing they are precious, right?

Or, if you want to be specific, Texts from Wednesday Night. On Wednesday night, Nate & I headed out to see Dave Matthews Band in concert. This, my friends, was an act of love on my part. I like Dave…I really do. But I don’t love Dave & I’ve put in four out of the [...]

Harrison’s first walk on the beach. Things Learned on Our Brief 48-Hour Vacay: Feeding a child without a high chair is hell. Three hours in the car with a teething child is worse.
