For one of Jack’s Christmas presents, we went to an escape room. The escape room’s theme was Pirates of Tortuga. We started out in a jail cell with skeletons and 60 minutes to try and escape (there was also a fake parrot who spouted gibberish whenever it could). The key to the cell was in […]
While we are in South Padre Island, Jack and I have been attending Jiu Jitsu classes and having lots of fun. At the start of class, we warm up and stretch so we are nice and loose for practice. One of the first moves we learned was the scissor sweep. It starts with someone putting

If you have read Jacks post: He lies, I crush him at Bad Tommy and when he wins, he barely wins. This week when we were leaving Yellowstone we decided to stop in the national forest 🌳 to see a visitor center because Daddy wanted to know why there were dead trees standing in the
This week we were at Yellowstone and we saw wolves. We drove to the best spot to see them and we found them. We had a great time watching the wolves. We couldn’t get the best view because it was a few miles (maybe one or two) away but we could see a pretty good
