My brother is getting married in less than a week! We traveled home to celebrate Shannon at a wedding shower. We're so excited for the big day!
Avery had her first dance competition of the season. The girls had a great time and competed very well. It's amazing the difference in their performances from last year to this year. They are really an awesome group of girls. I also got to celebrate with Aunt Shaunna for her birthday while we were there. I miss seeing my twin!
Uncle Peter is a chocolatier and we got to go visit his chocolate factory. The kids were in heaven! Shannon and Carlos picked out some wedding favors and the kids made a lot of chocolate. It was a close second to Santa!
