Hello beautiful friends, I hope this letter finds you all well. I myself have been having my ups and downs, which I swear I say every week, so not much is new. The best things in my life right now are honestly spending time with my family, cooking & making tik toks, and watching Big Mouth and Shark Tank. The worst things are that I am desperately trying to make plans for next semester but I keep running into dead ends and it is honestly hard for me to even think very much about it without bursting into tears. I am really trying to look on the bright side of things but it is not easy, I am sure many of you can relate. It is just really heartbreaking to not be able to pursue the college experience I expected. Also unrelated but my new hobby is going on Snapchat and watching stories and passive-aggressively screenshotting posts of people hanging out in large groups. That's enough talk! Onto the letter...
Tweet of the week!
This is really the only tweet that mattered to me this week.
News from Hanken Drive
Rio Breed Reveal!
For those of you who don't know, my dog Rio is a rescue dog, so we have never known what breed of dog she is. Every time we take her out people asks us what breed she is or gives us guesses of what she is. I don't know very much about dog breeds at all so I honestly didn't know what to expect. Caroline ordered a doggy DNA test for her from the company Embark so we could finally find out. All we had to do was send in a little test tube of her saliva and wait! We got the results yesterday and I am excited to share them with you!! Y'all may be a little surprised!!

December beach day? Love to see it!
Monday Natalia and I went to the beach which was absolutely divine!! There is something so splendid about going to the beach in the winter that I can't quite explain. We picnicked, had a beach walk, and I even tried to swim (but the tides were too harsh). We also went to an adorable new store in Stinson called Lexianna which was so cute and I found some great Christmas presents!!
Of course nothing beats pulling over to watch a gorgeous sunset!!
