“Some Kinda Wonderful” Weekends

Posting about the weekend on a Wednesday may seem odd, but think of it this way – Wednesday is the breaking point between last weekend and the next, between wishes fulfilled and wishes waiting.

(Housekeeping update: Post on the conference is coming. I am still processing the experience.)

I thought it would be appropriate to start with pictures of us from two years ago.
