Thanksgiving 2022

 We spent Thanksgiving with Phil's family. Phil's mom did a great job with all of the decorations and games. It was a fun time being together for our last Thanksgiving in the US for a while. 

Hartsville Christmas Open House

 Hartsville, South Carolina, always has a Christmas open house where vendors will sell items and there will be shows put on by the dance studio in town. They also have soap machines that make fake snow for all of the SC kids who never see the real thing. It's a fun way to start the Christmas season. 

Anna Gets Her Braces Off

 Anna has had her braces on for a little under two years. She got them on in February of 2021 and got them off November 15, 2022. 

Kate Dyes Her Hair

 Kate has been wanting to dye her hair for a while. A good friend of mine used to do hair professionally. She offered to do Kate's hair and even went with us to Sally's to pick out the right products to do the job.
