Dear Future Self,

My favorite cow girl 🖤

Fire side chats with my pops. 🖤

I gathered my peasants for a picture at the Nichols’ soup party.

I’ve never known a more popular 95 year old! This lady kept getting called during our visit today. 😜😂 She said since she’s made it this far (she didn’t think she would), that she now wants to make it to 100. Love you, Grandma Beth! I hope you have the happiest of birthdays today, and I’ll root for 100 with you!💜

You smile, I melt. Happy 4 years of dating, best friend. 😍

Sundays are for cuddles

“Can I has it mom?”

Happy birthday twin. Together we make half a century. 👫🤙

Dads are the best. 🖤

Joe took the day off to spend with me for my birthday. 😍💕

We may be at Frankfort’s homecoming game, but don’t let us fool you....we’re just here for the halftime show. #PaytonsFanClub

What a QUEEN! 😍💜

I was so thankful I was invited to attend the first colloquia of the semester hosted by President Mitch Daniels in his home at Westwood. The subject revolved around physics, so naturally when Joe couldn’t go I asked my brother, Pieter (who is a Purdue alum with a physics degree) to be my plus-one. We had fun, and even scored a selfie! 👊🏻🙌🏻
