February 2023

Sunrise

For a game for church, Tara had to submit a photo of her as a child and as an adult.  Here's what she chose. It's fun to see the change. 



Legally Blond - the Musical
Tara, Aria, and I went to watch this at the Hunt Center.  We had a nice time. 



IHOP


Valentines
Tara text Aria and asked her if anyone had given her anything for Valentines day.  Aria texted back saying no, but that she hoped a band member from her favorite K-pop band (TXT) would give her something. Tara decided to take the joke and run with it, and dropped off the items below for her at the school, with a card that said it was from that band member.  Aria loved it, and posted a short video about it on social media. That video then went viral, which brightened Aria's day even more.  It was a sweet experience to see how a small act of kindness can make a difference.


The geese are back!  
Pretty cool to see so many descend on our backyard.


We got Zade's progress report from school.  Man, that kid is amazing. 

Braces
Zade's journey with braces begins.  His orthodontist anticipates he'll have them for 15 months. Zade's not a big fan, but he's being a good sport. 

Something Rotten
Tara and I celebrated Valentines by going to the Actors' Cabaret in Eugene.  They put on "Something Rotten", which was great.  I really enjoyed their portrayal of Shakespeare. 


Hoodoo
Tara took Ryzen and Aria skiing, and they had a great time.
