2024!

It’s a new year and the fam and I are so ready for it. We’re still learning to move forward with our grief and some days are easier than others. There isn’t a day that goes by that we don’t talk about our Papa Joe and wish he was with us physically.

We decided to ring in the new year with a hike. Spending time outdoors is so healing for us and as the girls get older, (as long as we don’t forget the snacks), our hikes can be a little more challenging. Due to our mild winter, canyons that aren’t normally accessible this time of year, are perfect to explore. And we got to finish listening to book 5 of Harry Potter on the drive so a pretty successful day.

May 2024 be a good year for us all and be filled with experiences that make you happy. We’re hoping for more hiking and camping, traveling, spending time with loved ones, enjoying my sauna (and cold plunging for Josh), paddle boarding and river trips, Harry Potter, movie nights, cuddling, fostering pups, and remembering that those that have passed are always with us.
