Hey friends hey How’s your day going? Hope it’s been lovely. Last night, we went to see Wicked again. A Friday night ritual, perhaps? We had amazing seats, but sadly this was my view for most of it: Being very tall is a blessing I wasn’t bestowed with, but every angle of hair was teased…

Hi guys 😀 Sorry I’m so late posting today—we were locked outside of my Aunt’s house and while I could pick up her WiFi from the car, my laptop was inside. We’re in the casa now and I’m happily on the couch 🙂 So we made it to Orlando safely! When we got into town,…
