Filed Under: Travel 7 Comments

Let me start off by saying that I didn’t get any photos of PEOPLE. Well, okay. I got one. But it’s out-of-focus and not well-lit (despite featuring two of my favorites): I started my weekend by getting a cup of Starbucks (Thanksgiving blend with gingerbread syrup – THE BEST) and driving down to the gulfRead the whole post >>

The Rocket Ship Halloween.

Filed Under: Personal & Life Updates 5 Comments

Maybe my theme for Sundays in NaBloPoMo will be ‘Things that happened three weeks ago.’ (Like my birthday road trip.) Gabe went ‘trick or treating’ last year – but it was really just a few floors inside our apartment building since he wasn’t even walking yet. This year? Ooooh, baby. He got so into it.
