Our Annual Puzzle and Video for Christmas 2025!

Our Annual Video for 2025 is a celebration of 25 years as a couple and a family. To get the password, solve the puzzle in the image below.

Note: You can't directly type on the PDF so either print a copy, or write the words down on a separate piece of paper. Extra points if you can solve it in your head!

Once you have figured out the 6-letter password, click on the cute little mascots above, type the password and you'll be ushered into our Video Vault. Keep an eye out throughout the video as our mascots switch outfits at the beginning of each section.

As always, post a comment below about your favorite part of the video to show you've solved the puzzle, but don't give away the password directly.

P.S. If you need help, here is the answer key with the password. Also, add comments below if you encounter any issues entering the password or playing the video.

Cosplay fun at Fanime Convention in San Jose

Over Memorial Day weekend, the family headed to San Jose and attended "FanimeCon", an annual convention of fans of cosplaying, video games, animation, etc. On Saturday, Felicia and I dressed up as Mario and Princess Peach from Mario Tennis. Jason and Amara dressed up as opposing scouts from Team Fortress 2 (TF2). On Sunday, we all dressed up as characters from the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario, Princess Peach, Toad and Toadette.
