I thought that I would write a post, since I’m on vacation. I don’t write much, but it’s because my life is pretty boring most of the time! ( : Not boring in a bad way, but boring because I basically do the same things all the time.

Now that we have our new blog up and running (and looking somewhat like we want it), I figured we should update you on our lives a little…
