2016 was a wonderful year full of fun adventures, visits with family and friends, and exciting milestones for our kiddos. We’re looking forward to a new milestone in 2017 as we welcome a new addition to our family! #3 will be joining us in August and we couldn’t be happier. So from our (growing) family …
This past spring my mom, fondly known as Grandmom, came up for a visit in between school sessions. She was able to stay for just over a week and as always, it wasn’t nearly long enough. Mom has visited a total of four times and each time we’ve done something new and different. This time, the …
