Wordless Wednesday: ESPN The Picnic
My husband’s company is pretty awesome. Every August they throw this amazing company picnic at Lake Compounce. Now, In my short little lifetime, I have been to my share of company picnics, but never one like this. They rent out the park for the day and literally roll out a red carpet for all the employees […]
The Enfield Rotary Accessible Playground

Throwback Thursdays: Classes for Fall

Wordless Wednesday: Running
I signed up for the Hartford Half Marathon. I made a promise to a friend and more importantly a promise to myself and I signed up. After two pregnancies and three kids, I think it is time for a new challenge, right? Well, given that the race is 8 weeks away and I have yet […]
