Thanksgiving.....

Boy did Thanksgiving look different this year.  Claire and I worked our tails off to prepare our regular Thanksgiving feast....but this time no one brought any of the food!  It was a bittersweet day.  We did have our parents and my brother over in the evening for desserts and hot cider outside.  It was so different, but it was a lovely night and we all still got to be together!

Some family friends of ours who now live in Floriday loved Claire's little commercial so much they had this adorable wooden sign made for her to hang in her room....Thank you Rule Family!  You rock!!!

November Happenings....

Jesse has 2 more Final Exams with and he's home until January 6th!  We are so ready to spend time with sweet Jesse.  This is a selfie Jesse sent us before giving a tour of MSU as a Roadrunner.  That's about his only "social" activity these days due to Covid....ready to see our Jesse!

Well, Claire has some work to do over the off season, and immediately started seeing a strength trainer.  She sees him and then works on things throughout the week at home....proud of her work ethic that's for sure!  Go Claire Go!

 

Election Day Happenings!

Our Jesse voted for the 1st time ever!!!  He got there an hour before the polls opened to ensure that he was back in time for his 8am class!

Claire received her 1st fan mail ever!  St Benedict received it and it was from our former congressman Harold Ford Jr.  We had to explain to her who that was, but she was tickled!

 

A very different homecoming week!   Decade day meant Claire was 80's ready!

Tacky Tourist Day!
