Posted by Aaron  Published in Aaron & Miriam, Mikaela

Mikaela was so excited about this confluence of two of her all-time favorite things (dressing up and candy) that she was almost vibrating this morning. Last year, she was just a generic “princess”. This year, she was specific. She decided that she was going trick-or-treating as Cinderella.

Aaron's Facebook Status

Aaron wants to know who the hell invited Monday?

(Updated 3 days, 7 hours, 36 minutes ago)
