Will’s Home!

We’re living closer to Will now that he is out in the working world in Connecticut. The last four years of having him in Alabama have been hard for us – we missed him a ton and we couldn’t help him as much as we wanted. None of us would trade Will’s choice to attend the University of Alabama. It was an amazing experience for him and we loved visiting when we could.

But

With Will living closer to home, we are loving that we get to see him so much more often!!

Guess who is the happiest?
