2016 with the Vandevord Boys
It's been a long time since I've done this blog thing. I'm not even sure I will continue after this post but it's always a good way for me to save and reflect on things I want to remember. It's also amazing to see how much each of them has grown in 1 year. I really really wanna do the 365 day project this year. I've started off a little rocky but will try to get it in gear and post on here.
