Now I’m on the road to a Baltimore eshoot and then heading to Philly to visit my sister for about 24 hours! …Hey, it’s worth it. I’m still at the age where I can enjoy 5 hour road trips to basically share one meal together and then head home the next morning! It’s going to be fun! … Just a little tiring:)  So, what’s the point of this blog post? Well, I’m getting there. I love sharing a few little things every now and
