{My parents were in town and we headed down to the Museum of Flight on Monday. The big hanger with all of the big planes is the favorite of the girls.}

Happy Thanksgiving! {2019}

{A sneak peek of our fall family photoshoot – the rest will be up soon!}

I wanted to stop and wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving! Even though life has seemed crazy and chaotic recently, we are SO very blessed to have friends & family, a warm & comfortable home, and access to healthy food (and the list goes on).

I also wanted to share the obituaries for two women who have recently passed away, but will be very much missed by the Lower family! First is Aaron’s (paternal) grandmother Eileen Lower (whose service he attended last weekend), and second is Aaron’s step-grandmother Doris Overdorf. We are sending lots of love to all of the family & also remembering what amazing women we had the pleasure of knowing.

Happy Thanksgiving!

{Daphne and I had a quite morning at home on Friday with no real plans. I opted to skip my usual morning workout so we could get outside and scoot around the neighborhood!}

{Aaron had an unexpected vacation day on Friday and offered to take Daphne out on an adventure, just the two of them. They took the bus and (light rail) train downtown and got a donut. Daphne was so excited and chatted about it for the rest of the day! #papaoftheyear}
