Aug 2020- January 2021

In August 2020 we wished grandma Antczak a happy birthday through the window at her nursing home. I can’t wait for the day when we can hug her again! We also played at the cabin, and Jared and I celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary at Lagoon. We decided after weeks of considering..to add another puppy to our family! We surprised our kids and named her Hurley. Soon after, Kyler started 4th grade and the twins started kindergarten! We were thrilled that they got to go to “in person” school even with the mask requirement. It’s kind of sad... but our kids are just used to wearing masks wherever we go in public so they actually don’t mind them. The twins are in half day kindergarten and everyone only attends in person mon-thurs and Fridays are at home learning days. 

September 2020. Zoey started dance classes with her bestie. We did our traditional  raspberry picking with cousins. I took wetbag photos for Amazon/ALVABABY. Jared took Lyla to a fairy daddy daughter dance, and I turned 32!

October 2020. Lagoon frightmares  was so fun! We snapped some timer/iPhone pics at the cabin and enjoyed some family time. We visited my parents in St George. The kids dressed up as: a lightening ninja, Elsa, Spider-Man, and a witch but did not go trick-or-treating thanks to coronavirus. 

November 2020. Kyler turned 10 and we just had a small family party thanks again to coronavirus. Jared turned 37 and also got called into the Bishopric at church (second counselor). Zoey is obsessed with princess Ariel. We enjoyed thanksgiving with jareds side of the fam and ate some amazing food. 

December 2020. We started out the month with Ryan splitting his head at the Lifetime kids club. He ran around a corner too fast and hit his head on the corner molding. It was a small gash but needed two staples to close it because it was deep. Then we had a matching  Christmas pjs for the kids and the dogs photoshoot. Lyla had her first cheer performance. The twins turned 6! Again, just a small family party thanks to covid. Ryan went through a phase where he would sneak out of bed and put stuffed animals on  mine and Jared’s pillows every night. Ryan went to ski school for the first time and loved it! We had a great Christmas and hosted Jared’s side of the fam over for lunch. The day after Christmas we headed to Texas, where Tucker became a Texas ranger and we got to visit both mine and jareds sisters + fams. 

January 2021- We rang in the new year with the Roggia’s in Borger. It was great seeing my childhood town and home.
