Kelly was here well before I expected her! I had just showered and dressed, and was drying my hair. We had breakfast and then got organized and planned out our day. I didn’t take any pictures and we didn’t do…

First order of business. The 28th was Sarah’s birthday. Happy belated birthday to my sweet niece! Hope your day was amazing! And today is my sister’s birthday! She’s had her family there almost all week, and I haven’t talked to…
