Quick KC visit

The 2nd weekend in December we went to Kansas City to visit our friends. Saturday night we met at Paddy O'Quigley's in the Northland with a bunch of friends since we left town so quickly when we moved. We had a great time and THANK YOU to everyone who came out to visit! See you all next time!!

Arts and Crafts

This year we decided we were going to paint canvas pictures for all of my grandparents. We invited my cousins, Tavianna and Gabriella over to paint some pictures too! We had a ton of fun and hope all of the Grandmas and Grandpas enjoy their gift.
