Snow Days and the Winter Fun They Bring

Snow days are always a fun treat, even for college students. Snow days in Saint Louis are seemingly unpredictable because the weather varies constantly.

Snow days always bring different activities to participate in during the bitterness of winter, and it’s always fun at any age to go outside (or stay bundled up inside) and enjoy a snow day.

Family Time During Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a time for food, grateful hearts, spending time with loved ones and giving thanks to God for the immense blessings in our lives.

There is nothing quite like family time during the holidays. These photos represent what I believe encapsulates Thanksgiving with family.
