The Reason We Don’t Do Holiday Photo Cards

If by now you’re wondering when you’re going to receive our cute family photo on a festively adorned piece of cardstock, the answer is never.  This is not because you’re not my friend and I don’t love you, and I’m sorry to have failed to reciprocate, for those of you who have sent me such… Read More The Reason We Don’t Do Holiday Photo Cards

Looking for something to do with the kids (even the smallest of them) for the holiday season?  Welcome to Hartford’s Holiday Light Fantasia in Goodwin Park!
