The Cape 2025

-

Five days on the Cape with Jordi, Maxwell and her family was pretty special. Jordi folks, Pete and Sally are such good people. They're easy going, and casual and so, so fun and funny. Best of all, they absolutely adore Maxwell. They love him in the same way we love Jordi, and for that alone I'm beyond thankful.

Here We Go

Here we go...the first college visit for our last little Hanson! Whew, how did we get here?? Viv loved everything about Elon, but kind of the way she loves everything about life. It really was an impressive school though. The size is perfect, it has a great nursing program and a beautiful campus.  Who knows where she'll end up, but Elon sure did set the bar high.  From North Carolina we went to South Carolina to visit the Hansons Matt and Maureen on her birthday And maybe the best part of long weekend was a Buccee's stop! Totally worth the price of admission!
