Hawthorne Heights at Standpipe Coffee House #thesilenceinblackandwhite

So 2014 is the 10 year anniversary of the first album from Hawthorne Heights: The Silence in Black and White. And it is an album that I LOVE.

Top 5 Reasons To Get Well Checkups For Your Kids

The opinions in this article are my own. I do not work for, or with, any brand mentioned in this article, nor do I have any official relationship with them.

Because most of us have moms who just go get whatever it is … [Read more...]
