Everywhere You Go
Popping in for a quick second to drop a little sunshine. Because who couldn’t use some extra sunshine? Fun fact: Tuesday was a big deal for a lot of reasons, but in our little corner of the world, it was ALL about celebrating this little beauty’s 9th birthday.

third grade FINALLY begins
And she’s off! She was super excited to wear her backpack and talk about eating lunch at school. (Surprise, kid. Mommy is coming in to do your lunch. It’s not going to be that special. ) #3rdgrade #elated #alsogutted #allthefeels #isthisactuallyhappeningrightnow
