What's Making us Happy? - Rocket Launch, Asian Americans, and Commencement Speeches!

Hello all,
Almost 4 years since our last post, but felt compelled to write needing to keep a focus on what's making us happy. There's enough out there to not keep us happy at this time, day, and period (i.e. Covid).  Will always keep to a minimum of three items as there is power in three...



It's been an interesting time with Covid and the new responsibilities of parents to be workers, parents, teachers, activities coordinators, and counselors to our kids. We are in the norm that we are challenged and exhausted at the end of the day. We have faith and will not only survive, but thrive! Okay. Off my pep talk. A couple of happy things about the fam this week:
  • Olivia learned how to make doughnuts online
  • Davis perfected his Hawaiian fried chicken wings (version 2)
  • Kristen has made another version of face masks. Gets better each time.
  • Steve completed the virtual Idaho potato Half Marathon under 2 hrs! Was supposed to be in Idaho this weekend.
Will start this as a weekly thread unless the kids want to post earlier.
