Paul took this video about a month ago, when Beth and Maddie came to visit, and the five of us went to Chick-Fil-A for dinner. It makes me laugh every time I watch it, to see Savannah and Maddie crack each other up. And a picture from earlier that day, when we were playing Little People in our den:
