The Kassel Family Project Life 365

The teenage years are officially over for Laura.

Happy, Happy 20th Birthday to you, Red!

I hope you had a great evening solving a murder mystery with your best friends!

It was dinner out at Endwell Taverna to celebrate three upcoming birthdays!

It was a fabulous dinner to celebrate Andy, Laura, and John. Happy Early Birthday to all of them!

The Troopers Drum & Bugle Corps was in town rehearsing at Hickman High School today.

We went to the evening rehearsal, and it was a treat! The show was fun, the sound was amazing, and we all had a great time.

Laura’s boyfriend, Jack, is visiting for the next few days to celebrate her birthday. He brought along a birthday gift that is perfect for our book nerd!

He made the bookshelf for her because she just loves books. He still has to stain it, but this is a truly thoughtful gift. We decided that it will go to school with her in place of her wooden crates.

I found a recipe for making your own Sweet Tea Vodka, so Andy and I decided to try it tonight. It really was pretty good even though we are still tweaking the amount of Simple Syrup to add. We will definitely be making more!

We tried a new wine today from In Hoc Vineyards. It was a flavorful Chardonnay that Andy and I both enjoyed.

I found a new soap scent from Bramble Berry called “Lemon and Rhubarb,” and it smells fantastic. I cannot wait to try it out!
