Last night we went to the Cabin for dinner, it sits right on Crooked Lake – of course the perfect opportunity for a father/daughter picture. I just adore these two sweeties! I mentioned earlier this week that my friend Debbie is in town visiting, of course I just realized we have not taken a single [...]
