Special Announcement
I wanted to share some special news - The Blufords are expecting a baby in early May! There should be little to no interruption to our content, and I’m doing my best to plan scheduled emails while I take some time to bond with our new addition. Thank you for all your support of our family - here’s a recent pic of Evelyn and I on our family’s recent babymoon trip to Puerto Rico.
Until next week! -Lis
