Life & Stuff
Our dogs with Liv-she absolutely loves them. Bentley is the fluffy one. He’s half German Shepherd and half Great Pyrenees; he also weighs 115 pounds. Yup, that’s right. He’s a bear.

This Fourth of July, our friends from Alabama came to visit us. We’re so thankful for them. These are the times my kids will remember forever. Good stuff, ya’ll. Good stuff. There’s nothing like hanging out with good friends. Ya know? Hope you had a wonderful Fourth of July.
