@aprilathena7 Three weeks with Susan just wasn't enough. 🩷🫶🏼 We spent one week together in California then she came home with us to Minnesota for two more weeks. We took her to Chimborazo our favorite restaurant here in MN and tried some new ones too like Vegabondo. She left today and I already miss her so much. This visit reminded me that home isn't always a place. Sometimes home is simply being with the people you love. 😍 My heart felt so full while she was here and the house already feels a little quieter without her. We love you Susan! 🫶🏼💘
