Halloween 2019
Happy Halloween Johnson style! I think it is cute how the friend groups dress up together (missing Claire and her friend). Seth won first place at work today in the historical division (look up “Disco Dan the Robberman”).

After Gary and Kathy caught their plane back to Alaska, we packed up and went on a quick camping trip. We decided to head down to the Meadow hot springs, recreating a memory from nearly five years ago. Claire got to bring along her friend Andie and Ellie invited Izzy, so our car was full …
