"Bound to Please"

we had a sweet time in St. Louis this Christmas, and our family was sweet enough to wait on us to arrive before celebrating. We went to church Sunday morning in Arlington and then headed straight for St. Louis... we were exhausted, but so excited to be there!! We spent had a great time with family and our best friends.... the highlight of the trip was getting to meet our new nephew Britton. I didn't get any pictures with him but Julie did, so hopefully she will share them soon :)

Bent was worn out from terrorizing my parents two dogs all week... pretty sure he slept for two days straight when we got back :)
