One fine day in October....

We all got together for some family pictures, 

when someone knelt down and pulled some sparkly 'rocks' outta his shoe......

So now you know why I haven't done so well with the 31 days....

My daughter Kristen was engaged to her highschool sweetheart Kelly earlier this month, 

and we're now up to our eyeballs in wedding planning!

Aren't they the cutest?

Behold: the garage door.
