Alisa's Profile

Oh!! I injured you with my gigantic marshmallows!! I'm so very sorry my friend. I just do that to you and then jet off on my travels like it's no big thing. Next time you are so kind as to invite the Do-ers over for S'mores, I promise to not bring giant marshmallows from Wal-Mart. Hope you're feeling better my friend.

ODDS & ENDS

You are surely a most amazing family. J-Boy has been given quite the collection of tools to fit his needs. He's a pretty awesome kid as well. Love this post.

THE BIRTHDAY HIKE

The Boy recently turned 11. I'm in complete denial even though he has definitely made the turn to looking more man-ish than boy-ish. I figure once his facial hair starts coming in, I can live a fairly nice life in... Continue reading
