A date with Twilight – er, I mean my husband
Friday night, after a long anxious afternoon, waiting on pins and needles and sharp pointy vampire teeth for Lance to get tickets, we saw Twilight.

Emma’s new hat.
They say necessity is the motherhood of invention.
I don’t know about that, but one of my many missions this past month has been to make Emma a new winter hat as her old one is too small. I’m not sure why I feel this is so important, considering it’s going to be a balmy 78 [...]
