Will made this for Culinary.
He was concerned that displaying the Golden Arches would violate a trademark, so he flipped it and made the logo on the fries WcDonald's.
We have new kittens named Dexter and Daphne, we adopted them about a year ago. Dexter is able to open lever doors such that we have had to change some doorknobs to round ones. We finally caught him in the act!
Yesterday, Wilson went to Katy High School's Senior Sunrise 2026 where seniors meet for donuts at sunrise on the football field. At the end of the school year, they meet for the sunset.

Wilson said it's been a great birthday today. Amy spent two days making him a cake that he requested, complete with "meeples": the Wheel of Enormous Proportions from the latest Jackbox Party Pack. He had Kraft spirals for lunch and supper is his favorite pizza from our favorite shop: The Godfather (with meatballs). Most of the day he built with Legos and this evening we will play Jac
