The Bit had a three-year-birthday celebration that lasted a good three weeks (with three parties!), and we finally finished up with her big party with friends at Boingo Bounce, a local indoor place full of inflatables. She’d originally said she wanted a party at home with friends, which I was totally down with, but Boingo […]
I haven’t been doing a lot of crafting lately, other than knitting for my book, which is going to be the way it is for the next six weeks. We’re going to get pretty far away from the goal that’s stated in the name of this blog, and I beg for your patience in that […]
