These two have grown up together and have the sweetest bond. Even though Maggie believes to her core she doesn’t have to listen to Jude. I have no idea why but it’s hilarious because she really loves him. The first photo is them together on the day we adopted Maggie, Jude was 3. 🥰

Its fun binging some iconic shows and movies with them. They laugh in all the right places and memes they’ve seen online are now in context. So far we’ve done a handful […]
Day 2 WCA Cubing Nationals 2023 looked like this for me. I way overdid it yesterday while still deep in recovery from my injury. I am so frustrated with my body, slow healing, lost stamina, constant pain. I want to be there every second and my body just won’t let me. My goal is to be there every other day for a balance of rest and recovery. So today I texted, watched videos, played the livestream and refreshed stats about 8000 times. Jude had an incredible day! He set a new PR (personal record) for clock average and made it in to the finals where he came in 14th!!! It was […]
