    Our Little Vacation

    This past weekend, Trevor and I were able to take a much needed vacation without the kids. It’s been almost 4 years since we were able to get away. It was really nice. We rented a cabin in the mountains of Wears Valley (near Gatlinburg). Here’s a few pics of the weekend. This is what…

    Random Fun From the Past Few Months

    Playing dress up. I said to her, “Glorianna. I don’t think cowgirls had shields and knives.” to which she replies, “When your playing pretend, you can do whatever you want.” I stand corrected.
