We have been blessed to know 14-year-old Hannah and her 12-year-old sister Amanda for around four years now. Watching these two talented Missouri sisters grow has been amazing. To hear them sing in church for the Christmas cantata to watching them get their patches from Awanna has been great, and we are looking forward to the years to come. But there is more to these busy sisters, and we had the honor of interviewing them.

Check out Amanda’s interview below. Read Hannah’s interview here.
