Here goes 2024. We recently went to see the MN Orchestra play quite the show for Lunar New Year and had a wonderful time. The girls really liked hearing it all. We had a nice evening out with some of the neighbors, we had a fun trip to Como Zoo for old time's sake, visited a local Harry Potter themed cafe, Nina had a good band concert, among other typical goings on. The other happy news is Nina's joy in her new hamster, Stracciatella. She named him after the gelato she loves in Italy, which is also referenced in a book she loves. He's a very friendly guy and has quickly stolen her heart.
We have been grieving the loss of beloved Aunt Marte. She was an amazing and fiery woman who always had a joke, some inspiration, and a twinkle in her eye. The trip down to Winona for her wake was tough, but it was nice to share stories with others. No trip there would be complete without some Bloedows, and we also had a nice hike in Frotenac State Park, and up Garvin Heights where we unexpectedly ran into our neighbor, John.
