Alive and Well

Hi, everyone. Just a quick post here to let you all know that things are going well in the Shaffer household. We have the twins for another week and a half; we'll be leaving on Friday, August 1 to take them back to Indiana to meet Sam's dad, and he'll drive them the rest of the way home to PA on Satuday, August 2.

So all is well--super crazy, but lots of fun! You all take care, and we'll be posting pictures of the kiddos very soon. In the meantime, here is my latest favorite picture--a grandpa who has definitely fallen off his rocker, a little boy who just loves to be in his papa's presence, and a little girl praying for her papa to just make it through the day.






Much love,

Sarah
