My husband is not really a fan of sweets. Which is probably good since I'm baking all the time. However, he loves pie.

Just a little happy day
Spent some time outside enjoying a GORGEOUS Seattle day today. Ahhh. It was awesome. Burned my shoulders, grew lots of new freckles and discovered that Donovan is NOT a fan of the lawn mower. Took some photos of the little man, which he is a big fan of. The little girl has decided to become… Continue reading Just a little happy day
