Turkey Tri 2025

 I love tiny little races where I actually have a shot of placing!   I was able to secure 1st place this year.   Same time as always, but I'm older so there's that. We cooked it the Sunday after Christmas

Aurora Borealis

 We've had a few days over the last couple years where the aurora has made it down to Utah, but we are so surrounded by light that it's really hard to catch. 

One evening in November though, I could get some of the green with my camera on my way home from orchestra and then just after I got home, the clouds caught the red light and we were able to see it without the help of a camera. It was cool. Like a sunrise at 10pm. 

Still would love to see them like they are in the arctic..... maybe some day.

The next morning had an equally stunning sunrise

Halloween 2025

 Halloween was pretty low key. I love a cheap and easy costume.

At work we were Peter Pan. I was Wendy. 

Ezra was the old reliable again.

It didn't seem right to not have a jack-o-lantern, so even though I'm not a fan, I carved this last minute.

Ezra turns 17

Ezra had a birthday! His favorite sister came home to celebrate.

There was curry and cake and presents and an overall good time. 

Happy Birthday Ez!
