Our little pumpkin loves our dog Strider. After she gets up from her nap she asks to give “doggy a kiss!” I hope she gets to grow up with him as her best buddy- it’s a love story so far.  Had to share their sweet relationship!

It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just we It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just went bowling for the first time in my life! 🎳

I avoided it at first because it didn’t seem that fun. Then- because I didn’t know how to do it. But, this year I’m challenging myself to try new things. Even if I look like an idiot! Who cares?! 😃

Bottom line, loved bowling. I suck. But it’s fun! Who knew? Well, lots of people. But now me too! Also- it’s helpful to have friends that make you try new things and expand your horizons. Super grateful for mine! ❤️
