St. Louis Cardinals Game with Byron and Christy – 6/1/2014
A good friend from high school, Byron won tickets for a Cardinals game from his employer.

May – 2014
I caught Sonora practicing her ballet at home, she looks so cute! No, this isn’t a visit to a doctor’s office… I played a prank on a co-worker today. Drew with dry erase markers on the glass over her kid’s photos. Hogan Haake
