The end and the beginning
Some of you know how I've been struggling to work full-time outside of the house this year and yet maintain some semblance of a life and deal with kids' medical issues. It has been difficult to say the least. I have had a tremendous amount of support from my husband and my boss and my… Read more

CI Easel Album
I've been saying for years that I would do a mini-album about our annual vacation in Maine and I finally did it! I documented the whole trip – starting with the 2-day roadtrip (which is one of our favorite parts of the whole thing!) and I made sure to include photos of my brothers and… Read more
