Debbie, Lori, and Deb visited us from Ohio! They are on a girls trip and what we love is that they don’t have a specific destination. They are making it up as they go and they are having fun!

On a sidenote, Lori used to work for a scrapbooking company called Scrappin’ Sports and More. You might remember it.It was a wonderful vendor that carried all sports-themed product. And guess what, our Peggy was on their design team.
