hey friends! We were in Las Vegas for a few days and then we took Ellerie to Disneyland for a few. I’m looking forward to spending the next four days eating home-cooked meals and catching up a bit (partly on work, but mostly on House of Cards). Look for weekend links on Saturday and a…

I'm doing a different sort of wrap up this year. I have shared a lot of photos & words over the past 12 months, but I have not shared a lot of numbers. Above is a collection of random facts that made up 2014 for the Cripe family. This was absurdly fun to pull together…
