Grandma Mary and Papa D. made Grandma's Spaghetti! A great night together enjoying Grandma's spaghetti, Leo and Alex's birthday, a grand game of tag, and one final round of gaga ball.

Alex is 12
Our little man is 12! 💙
Alex fills our home with so much joy, laughter, and love. He is confident, caring, curious, and always ready to learn or try something new. He’s adventurous when it comes to food (especially anything with Asian flavors!) and brings the same enthusiasm to life.
Alex is a wonderful friend, a generous brother, and a kind cousin. Whether he’s reading a great book, building with LEGOs, solving puzzles, watching movies, listening to music, playing golf, or swimming, he gives it his all. He truly works hard so he can play hard.
One of my favorite things about Alex is that I can always count on him for a hug. His kind heart and joyful spirit make every day brighter.
Happy 12th Birthday, Alex! We are so proud of the young man you’re becoming and can’t wait to see what this next year brings. We love you so much! ❤️🎉

Kate at Duke
Kate was living her best life at Duke. Living, Learning, and meeting new people. She had so many great stories to share and was excited about the new things she learned and adventures around Raleigh and Durham - AMAZING experience all around!
Max at Duke
Max loved the classroom time, getting to know some professors and TAs, visiting the law school and courthouses, being autonomous on the Duke campus, and engaging in some great debates!
