While I may get a little stressed as summer approaches and scheduling takes a turn, I always get sorrowful when it comes to an end. I’m convinced this summer went by faster than any other, seriously. Earlier in the year, we decided not to take an extended trip. Instead, Luke took some time off work […]

Afterwards, we were going to have his friend sleepover, which would be the first sleepover we’ve had […]
