December 29, 2021 – Postcards from Retirement

Happy Holidays!

If you came here because I suggested it in our Christmas card, you’ve made it to the right place to see an overload of family photos in my little 2021 retrospective! Enjoy, and thanks for stopping by! I hope to hear from you and catch up on your news, too…we wish you the very happiest holiday season and all the best in 2022. xoxo

Sarah and Miles, Elle (13), Beck (11) and Jack (7)

Bonnie and David, Emery (12), Luke (9) and Ada (7)

Susan and Corey, Aidan (18) and Ally (14)

Snowpocalypse, Pandemic Springsteen puzzle, we digitized some old reels and videos, Lake LBJ trip, Chicago trip with teens, NJ trip to see Mom, Philly trip, Zoom calls with friends, and our two old cats (Ajax and Kali, 16).

Late Christmas #1: Tyler, TX

We spent a couple of days with Sarah, Miles and kids after Christmas. Had a blast playing “Kids Against Maturity” and “Kids vs Parents” with Grandpa on the kids’ team (haha), played with the boys’ new basketball game and air hockey game, Sarah, Elle and I ran errands and got some boba tea (new fave), had a nice dinner with Rich’s leftover ham and some fresh sides, exchanged gifts, and as always, enjoyed lots of good conversation, big laughs, and fun just being together.

Sarah completed her requirements to get her real estate license and had “head shots” done for advertising. She will start working for a friend’s company after the first of the year. We’re super proud of her! I told her I was a bit disappointed that her photos don’t include really big hair and overdone makeup but perhaps I am stereotyping the real estate business. 🙂
