Lauren, Dallin, Sabina, Bryce, Brigette, Kjirsti, Tom

How can anyone see this and bash Cleveland? I don’t get it. This gorgeous lake is about two miles from my house! The photos are thanks to my amateur landscape photographer brother- Trevor.

My gorgeous sister Brigette. Brigette is one of those people who can do anything. She is a creater in all senses of the word. Her recent creative explorations have been in clothing redesign. She made the pink shirt I am wearing in the party pictures below. We spent several hours at Anthroplogy while she was here. I was amazed at her ability to pick apart a piece of clothing to distinguish how it was made so that she could make a replica. She helped me make a shirt while she was here. Let’s just say, she is much more gifted than I at these sorts of things!

Sabina, Brigette and I. I have loved how my relationships with my sisters have changed and developed over the years. While we are all in different stages of our lives, we have always found common interests. Everytime I am around them I feel inspired to be more creative, seek for excellence, and love more.

Trevor and Lauren:
We just love Trevor and Lauren. They are so easy to have over. They’re non judgemental, helpful, and energetic about trying new things.They love playing board games. Lauren beat us all her second time at Robbie rally- much to Trevor’s chagrin!

And us.
 I’m so grateful for a husband who is so welcoming and kind with my family. Tom has been a tremendous host, and is definitely the favorite uncle. Bryce and Dallin adore him, just as I do.
