Picture Post!

Is anyone else tired of looking at pictures of our kitchen?! Yeah...okay, well in an effort to accomplish one of my goals for the year 2013 (more on that later), I am trying to blog at least 3 times a month...that's right folks...and today is definitely January 30th, so here's to 3 new posts in the next 2 (ish) days! Until I can organize my thoughts, here is a dump of pictures from the past 6 months!
