The Little Things

Taken in 2008 Okay…. 2 little things to be exact. This morning we volunteered to take Isaac to school with us since his momma has apparently lost the ability to be two places at once.  It’s always a bummer when that happens.  😮 2008 Anyway, Isaac comes over, I get him and AG set up […]
