Wedding in the Woods

November 3, 2013 by kristikrass

We all know couples who just make sense together. Somehow, something brings together two people whose interests, quirks and personalities just fit, and you can’t imagine a better match in the world for either of them. That totally applies to Jerry and Chrissie, recent transplants to Dallas and long-time friends of ours. Jerry and Jeff met in grade school, and I got to know Jerry when we all lived in Chicago. Jerry first spotted Chrissie across the room at a […]

Two Krass-Packed Weekends

April 5, 2011 by kristikrass

Busy times lately! The Krass abode has been a hot spot, most recently hosting Jeff’s mom Chris and his Cali cousin Linda. Two fun-loving ladies who could run circles around Jeff and me. Two ladies who fell madly in love with the boutiques, restaurants, food carts, and pet stores two blocks away on 23rd. Two ladies who entertained themselves while Jeff and I dealt with the little corner of hell I call the Beaverton DMV. (Silver lining – we’re officially […]
