Annie as Walter White on Halloween 2022

 In the TV series breaking bad which is about a chemist who runs a meth lab, there is a character called Walter white.  Now, every year early college has a costume contest and any always intends to win! And here she is in her winning costume Complete with skull cap and glasses! And if I had a  Boy instead of a girl, Annie would have been Dean and she would look like this!  I just couldn't believe the transformation!

Annie's Shoes

 Now, this is a photo from Annie's sweet 16 bonfire. I just wanted to mention the importance of these Levi's shoes that are actually men's shoes. Because Annie is someone who sensory input is very important, she fell in love with the feeling of these shoes and would wear them until the laces broke and until the rubber on the bottom had a large hole. As a result, we bought these shoes again and again sometimes buying extras so that she would always have them until 2024.  It was a span of about 5 to 8 years where she would only wear these shoes. Just wanted to post this as a memory.

Shana's Birthday Outing 2022 : Vintage Photos & Other Fun at Mystery Hill

 We had an opportunity during this birthday trip to do another vintage photo session just like we did in Gatlinburg. We took it!  There was also a lot of other fun things to see at mystery hill:  Axe throwing, a shadow wall, illusions, electric activities, strange height differentials in certain places, and the largest collection of arrowheads in the world.
