Halloween 2021

Dagny had a blast trick or treating this year (she was a serial killer - yikes) and while Ainsley didn't participate in that she did make it to a haunted house - Karl is definitely not sure he wants to repeat that next year.

Bro Trip 2021

 This year Karl and his brothers went to Nederland, CO (just outside Boulder) for their trip and while short they had a great time hiking and exploring the local spots.

Maryland Renaissance Fair

In early October we made a trip to the Maryland Renaissance Fair and while it had been a number of years it was exactly the same from the steak on a stake to the acts. Puke and Snot were on point and exactly how Karl remembered them 30 years ago when he first saw them in Colorado.

We even found Waldo.

Experiencing Van Gogh

 We took a break from things to actually venture outside with actual people to experience an immersive Van Gogh exhibit - really cool and I think even the girls enjoyed it.

Grandpa Rudy

 It is with great sadness that I announce that Grandpa Rudy passed - we took some time in Rock springs to remember him and to enjoy family. He will be missed so greatly - he was a wonderful man and as funny as anyone I've met. We will miss you and we love you.

Random Miscellaneous - Fall 2021

 We continued our regular activities and while we have thousands we chose these two. 

First Day of School - 21/22 SY

 We are in school and in person! Dagny started 8th grade this year - her final year in Middle School and Ainsley started her Sophomore year in High School. 

North Carolina - One Last Time!

It was time to say goodbye to the North Carolina house this summer. We have had some great memories there and made a few more this summer. We will certainly miss this place.

Fourth of July - 'Murica

 We kept it local again this year and bought an insane amount of fireworks for the house...too many and some were maybe dangerously close to burning down the house but all was well in the end and we ate cake.

Florida - Disney

So it has been some time since we had been to Disney so we just had to go back and this time we go for Star Wars.  We had some co-travelers in Chris, Stacey and Caiden and we had such a great time and some great chili dogs.
