Like it did for everyone else, the pandemic craziness changed up our Thanksgiving plans.

Who knows what our grandkids' basketball season will be like this year, considering all the ever-changing protocols this nasty Covid has caused.

Our twin granddaughters Kelsey and Kassie celebrated their eighth birthday with family over the weekend.

To cap off a fun youth football season, our 5th-grader Kaden joined forces with other Shenandoah 5th- and 6th-graders to form one school team and take on county big-school rival New Castle for a couple of games.

Let me just say Papaw Kim and I have the cutest pumpkin-pickin' crew around!

What a difference a year makes!
