Great Day!

With an extra hour in our day we decided to take advantage, not by sleeping in....that's not possible with little ones...so we took off to Lexington for a day of shopping and fun! First, we headed to Bob Evans for a fantabulous country breakfast and then to the mall for a little shopping. We ended the afternoon with ice cream at Culvers! Tonight, I cooked the most amazing dinner -
