To everything there is a season...

Hello to the few people that check in here from time to time (i.e. HI MOM!). The other day I opened my laptop to upload photos for the first time in months and literally blew the dust off the keyboard.  That was it.  When was the last time I took photos on my real camera?  For FUN?!?!  Sorry iPhone, you are super duper handy, but I need to rediscover the beauty of my sturdy SLR.  I love Instagram and being able to stay in touch with friends in such a meaningful way, but at the end of the day, I want more than a handful of iPhone photos of my family and the life we share.  So, I'm back.  I don't know how much I will be writing, but I need a place to put these images I treasure.  We are in the throws of family life with young children, and for better or worse, I'm gonna toss snippets of my amazing kiddos and sleep deprivation and so-adorable-I'm-dying moments out to the internets.  Welcome!
