I’ve literally been counting down the days…as soon as my kids wake up, we’re heading to Target. And yes, I will be listening to it 24/7 beginning today. Buble plus Christmas…nothing could be better. XOXO
Chainsaw Massacre
Let me start from the beginning…a week ago, I told Andrew that he needed a hobby. His (very sweet) reply was that his kids were his hobby. After work, he just wants to spend time with his family. As sweet…
