Dash could walk right on top of the snow. For reference, that is a barstool to the right of Dash. It’s almost completely buried. 
Happy 17th Birthday Grace! Halle and I made her a dark chocolate tart covered in homemade salted caramel. I’m pretty proud of how this turned out. Grace makes us dessert every Sunday, so we really wanted to Wow her on her birthday 
Josh was one of only 3 8th grade students to be selected for the Spotlight on Excellence award. I am so proud of all the hard work he puts in at school and how he conducts himself with integrity.

Having fun in the new basement! 
First Covid Vaccine DONE! So so grateful for modern medicine and all the thousands of people who worked to bring us this vaccine. It’s always a little scary to inject a new substance into your body, but I am so grateful to be able to do my part to try and end this pandemic.
