Life Lately: Janubruary Edition :)

 The first 2 months of 2021 are just about over!  Here are a few random highlights...

Herky is still living his best life.  The kids wrapped him up one cold evening 

Maddalena and I waiting in line for our first dose of the COVID vaccine

Camden was one of Naples Middle High School's Student of the Month

Saturday afternoon shooting hoops

Wine and Paint night at the Zimmermanns'

We were blessed with a sunny 70 degree Saturday after weeks of rain.  The boys hit the golf course

I enjoyed an afternoon of reading on the patio

Melissa and I just happened to be twins at school one day

Donita and Maddalena make great photobombers! 

Camden wore his dress blue for inspection during NJROTC 

Herky was extra cuddly (and cute)

Going back through my phone, I don't have any pictures of Emma "doing her thing" over the past 2 months :(  She's been busy with schoolwork, working out, and doing a lot of soccer drills in the yard. 

February Birthday Celebrations

When the calendar turns to February, it's birthday week at Casa Kasparek! :) 

Chris was pretty excited that the 46th president was inaugurated 2 weeks before his 46th birthday.  He loved this shirt we found him, along with some Grandma Rosie Bars on his special day  

The next evening we had a little birthday dinner to celebrate him.  

Sherri, Madds, Mel, and I hanging out in the kitchen

Happy Birthday, Dear Chris!

Frankie took a dance break to snap a picture with me

I enjoyed having my birthday fall on the Friday of a holiday weekend.  On the 13th, we gathered for  a ladies' lunch out - the first time we've been able to eat lunch in a restaurant together since early October!  

I got my dose of snow for the winter!

Camden's Confirmation

Camden received the Sacrament of Confirmation on January 22.  We were blessed that Bishop Muhm was able to make it for the special occasion.

Camden chose his Godmother, Jessi, to be his Confirmation Sponsor.  Chris made a Flat Jessi to join us.

 

Look at these two GROWN children!

Jake and Camden sporting their custom made Italian suits

It's hard to believe these lovely ladies were Confirmed 2 years ago!

Julia, Emma, and Izzy

Thank you to Maddalena, Melissa, Ron, and Sherri for joining us for the extra special day!

MLK Weekend Girls' Trip 2021

A perfect start to my Saturday morning: coffee and mimosas
