Reflecting on 2023, looking forward to 2024

 Looking back through pictures I realized just how much we have done.  It was a great year with the exception of Annabelle's seizure in September that landed us in the hospital and scared all of us and the three of us getting Covid for the first time.  Thankfully it was only the 1 seizure and our Covid wasn't more than a cold.
