So now M is officially on her way to Taiwan. She's on the plane right now – thank you, airplane wifi! – and will land in about 8 hours or so. Here are some pics of her whole group that were either emailed to me or posted on Instagram. We are not at all surprised that M took the selfie.

We are all excited for M to launch her blog so that we can follow her adventures.

Speaking of adventures, Dad is in NYC tonight with A! He is there for work and they are out to dinner right now, I believe with A's friend Christy too (not sure if that is spelled right). Yesterday A went back to the movie set and spent the day there, including 4 hours of jumping into a lake. She said it was tiring but very fun. She is going back to set tomorrow for more shooting this weekend. We can't wait to see the movie!

Here they are at dinner:

N had the usual Thursday conundrum of soccer vs baseball practice, which meet at the same time. He chose soccer this week for practice, since baseball is going to win out for Saturday's game, which of course overlaps with the soccer game. Sigh. We have had two nights of good TV – Survivor, The Amazing Race and Abbott Elementary.

N is also running for school treasurer. He MAY have the campaign slogan, "Take the bait and vote for Nate."

Tomorrow I go for a long-delayed girls weekend to Bethany Beach. The last one was in September 2019. Excited to see my friends.
