For our Family...
Today I've decided to move myself, Rob and Noah closer to our family. There will be no moving truck, instead the Edwards are moving online to "Blogger". Greetings from the new Welcome Street that is much closer to you all than the "Welcome Street" we live on in sunny South Carolina. This is general disclaimer that I have terrible spelling and do not have enough time in my day to edit my work. However, I care deeply about our families and want to give them a way to stop by "our house" more often.
