Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas From Our Family to Yours.

We  have all survived year two of Covid-19. Curt and I were the only ones who traveled and that was usually with the travel trailer for geocaching and sight-seeing adventures. We had out-of-the-country travel plans for the seven of us, but put it on hold again for another year. We did gather in the Black Hills for several days in July and called it our Family Vacation.

We are back in AZ for the winter, enjoying sunshine, warm temperatures, stunning sunsets and time with our winter friends.

Kari's hospital job was moved home in June. She has decided she likes working from home. She goes to Tapestry, a women's residence center where she provides counseling services, each morning until 3:00PM. Her two kitty roommates enjoy having her home! She has also started an online Masters program in Counseling. Needless to say, she keeps busy but misses traveling.

Karl and his family stay busy. He is back to several days each week in the office. Crystal works several days a week downtown and has her graphic design clients as well. Willa is a 6th grader at Edison Middle School and Marek a 4th grader at Sonia Sotomayor Elementary. They both played soccer this fall and we saw most of their games. Willa was selected for the third year to sing in the SD Elementary Honors Choir, held in Rapid City the end of October. She is also in band and chorus at Edison. Marek enjoys all things computer and games. 

Curt and I took a ten day camping and caching trip to Mingo KS in May. We flew to Nasville and drove to GA, SC and NC in June; the last three states we had not visited. In July we camped in the Black Hills. We took a month-long camping and caching trip to Glacier and to WA in August. In September we spent a long weekend in northeast ND visiting relatives and friends and geocaching. 

Wishing You and Yours a Happy and Healthy New Year!

 

Like many others, I am sending fewer cards this year. 

Wishing you all the brightest and healthiest new year.
