On My Bedside {Every Last Lie}

I can’t remember the last time I watched five minutes of tv, but I’ve been devouring books!

On My Bedside {The Other Boleyn Girl}

May 10, 2018May 10, 2018

When Mother and I cruised together with the boys in February, she was reading The Other Boleyn Girl and literally could not put it down.  I kept willing her to finish it for two reasons: 1) so we could go do something fun and 2) so I could take my turn at reading it.  :-) … Read More

The WHS Holiday Fine Arts Showcase is one of my favorite nights of the year and I couldn’t be prouder of Whit. He (cello) and the chamber orchestra (with the concert band!) brought Sleigh Ride to life in the most magical way. 🛷🎶
