Discovery Camp 2008

The Countdown and Sentiments that follow

Apologies for the long silence. I’ve been scribbling so much in my journal that blogging took second place in my writing sphere. As for TODAY, the official conscious countdown has begun!

Pleasant Online Suprises

The greatest of joys are not those that we celebrate on our own, but those that others can share and rejoice in. Thus far, the emails, gifts, notes, conversations and expressions that accompanied with the announcing of our wedding have overwhelmed us.
