Here's the video on YouTube.  We kick off the year with Ryder getting his BJJ blue belt from [Easton BJJ](https://eastonbjj.com/thornton/) right before his 18th birthday. Although it's the first belt you get beyond the white belt it's legit. Some good weather was an opportunity to take Bodhi up to the mountains to do some shooting. There's a designated spot in National Forest land West of Lyons that works out well. In the Spring Ryder graduated from High School. He's very happy to be done with High School. We did a Summer cruise, lots of fun and after that went all out with a trip to the Orlando parks. Bodhi got his learner's permit and started driving. He drives better than I thought he would. The in-laws; Allen and Juanita made a trip to Colorado. We had a chance to honor Allen for a veterans night at Holy Family then we took a trip to the Palisade wine country. It's hard to beat mountain views and vineyards. For the Christmas holiday we dialed it back and hung out at home the first part. We hit about 6 Christmas pop-ups all around the Denver area, we tore it up. Then we flew into Louisiana to see friends and family. Lots of good food and good people.
