We welcomed January with expectation and hope.... and are looking forward to this new year!
Here's a photo montage of our month, which (like all of the months of the pandemic) went by both painfully slow and super fast!!😁
After a long hiatus, the scooters came out and Matthew enjoyed evening rides showing off his light up wheels.
Another Ducks win...woohoo!!
We took a drive to Salem to surprise Doug's sister Deanna for her birthday
We woke up on the 13th to no power. A big wind storm came in the day before and thru the night it wreaked havoc on some of the trees in the neighborhood.
My sweet hubbys went to Starbucks for coffee AND had a fire going... all before I got out of bed.
This is one of the larger trees that came down. It took out two different fences, a tree house and part of a chimney! It was crazy to see! Thankfully no one was hurt and we had power back on by mid-day.
Another month of Bodie being Bodie...haha!
We took a fun hike thru Nobe woods park on dry but chilly Saturday morning
Evelyn made Bodie a kilt...haha! He loved it. Obviously.... 😂
We put a candle in the window the night before the presidential election to remember all of those who have lost their lives to COVID-19. I don't have a photo, but the kids and I watched Joe Biden and Kamala Harris be sworn in as the next leaders of our country on the 20th. It was moving, powerful, and hopeful. We are thankful for new leadership of our country.
Well, hello GF Oreos!! So happy they made these and we snagged a few packages the minute we saw them. And I can tell you they are amazing... Evelyn was over the moon happy!!
We had a small snow storm that brought just a little bit of accumulation to our fine town. Our first snow of winter! The kids thoroughly enjoyed it!
Matthew and his buddy Cannon tasting snowflakes as the snow started
Hot cocoa with the neighbor kids after a morning playing in the white stuff. It went away almost as quickly as it came, but it was fun while it lasted, and super pretty!
That pretty much sums up our January... we are still in quarantine and still hopeful things will get better soon!!
