We have had an extra busy fall, with busy kids and work PLUS a move to a new house!
Gloria turns 10!
822 Forest served our family so well. We moved here when Gloria was born and had wonderful neighbors and have incredible memories. But, the time came for us to say goodbye to 822 Forest and continue our journey at a new location...
We continue the adventure eight blocks away -- at 510 N. Euclid!
Welcome home!
