Road Trip

This weekend we loaded up and went to St. Louis to visit some of our best friends, the Kruegers. We drove through a horrible storm and I was terrified, but other than that Annabelle did great on the long drive. 4 hours and we didn't stop. She always amazes me!


I sat in the back with her and we read books, sang, and snacked.

When we got there, Annabelle and Neely played like best friends. They've only been around each other a few times, but you would think they grew up together. It's so sweet to me how much they love each other. 

They hadn't seen each other since last July!

Last summer.

Now.



My best friend is such an amazing wife, mom, and friend and she constantly inspires me. 

And Annabelle adores Emily





Belle and Her Cousin

Annabelle has six amazing, perfect cousins. She adores them all! Of those six, there is only one girl. Annabelle and her girl cousin are about 9 months apart. I absolutely love and cherish that these little girls will grow up like sisters. 

I cleaned out Belle's closet and started to cry and be sad as I always do, and then I realized that this was so special because I would share them with her little cousin. I loved wearing my sisters' clothes growing up and hope that Belle and her cousin love sharing everything too!

Plus, it doesn't make me feel so guilty that Annabelle had way too many clothes!
