Graduation

Over the weekend I graduated with my Master's degree. I never thought I'd ever get here so I'm pretty thrilled. I started my program in the fall of 2009 and then took a hiatus in the summer of 2010. I had wanted to return but family life was more of a priority at the time.... Continue Reading →

Our Trip to Florida

Happy New Year! Time is flying by. I can't believe it's already the middle of February.

This first photo... Continue Reading →
