Raising Three Little Princesses

JJ’s youngest brother, Ryan is going to college a few hours from where we live so his parents visited with us for several days before dropping Ryan off. We were really happy to visit with JJ’s parents since they live in Alabama. Over 30 hours drive! Here are a couple pictures: On their way home, [...]

I am slowly crossing items off my spring cleaning to-do list. Not really the easiest thing to do since JJ has been working late all week and I am having to nurse Miriam every couple hours.
