December 2020

We're back! Since I last posted my mom and dad moved to Auburn; Pete and Hank started school; Anton and Mat started teaching again. Hank is at an in-home daycare with five other kids, and he loves it. Pete is back at Montessori, where he's in a small, mask-wearing pod. None of us have gotten Covid (that we know of).

Hank and his bestie, Jay (Yay--Hank can't quite say "J")

Their personalities in a nutshell.

Hank and Wuwu's faces crack me up

Documenting a rare sight: Tony riding in the backseat en route to Asheville to visit Auntie X and Emily.

At a brewery, post hike.

Out of order! This was the back of our Christmas card. I don't think I can post the front online.

Lunch at a restaurant near the Biltmore. Pete is very good at long, boozy lunches. If only he could drive.

Hank stayed at home with Mat.

The coolest members of the fam.

We were fools and baked dozens and dozens of cookies for our neighbors.

At the Build-a-Bear store which was terrible and awe-inspiring (Pete loved it).

Carrying Hank's.

Making chocolate covered raspberries, as one does when one runs out of other things to do.

Christmas! By the end Pete vetoed opening any "soft presents," for he knew they were clothes.

Don't be a mask-hole
