I never get sick of taking pictures of this little guy! I figured new lil Barrett photos would be a nice way to break back into the blogging world after my long absence. These photos were taken over New Years weekend which marked the 1 year anniversary to my first...

oh for goodness sakes…

I can’t believe how quickly we are approaching Christmas and 2010! Time always seems to fly (unless, of course, you happen to find yourself sitting at a desk) but I think the month of December goes the fastest. August is probably a close second when you are a student...

I Have A Website!! and a Merry Christmas too!

Hello all holiday go-ers. I hope that your Christmas eve day is going as splendid as mine. I woke up to a dusting of snow which was just enough to be pretty and fluffy, and not ruin any driving. I went to a long over due hair appointment and told Trish to “do...
