LauraMay 27, 2014

Tomorrow Is Just a Dream Away

LauraMarch 27, 2014

Three years ago, we decided to start making bucket lists. We were in college, we were poor, and we spent far too much time at a 24-hour diner that was housed in a trailer. Winter had been long in Oklahoma that year, and there hadn't been many days ...
