Tree is decorated! Even though this year will be tough since we lost our family matriarch and rock (my Nana) in October, everything is falling into place to have family together to spend it with and remember her with. It was her favorite holiday and she loved giving to others. #christmas

New Valheim video up! Was fun trying to figure out how to spawn The Elder and managing to beat him. What a fight! Now I have to find the swamps, which we have not yet seen. #valheim #gamingsky #letsplay #survival

Took a bit to get this one out, due to lots going on and just being a bit overwhelmed lately, but it's out! It's a long one, but we try out our boat, finally get mead cooking, and finally get brave enough to take out another giant and 2 bears. #gamingsky #valheim #promosky

This Saturday, 10/18 @ 10am PT, I am going to do my first marathon type stream. We'll be shooting for 10-12 hours and we'll be diving into The Planet Crafter with a random location start. I've played it before but never streamed it, so this should be fun. #promosky #gaming #gamingsky #planetcrafter

Today finally felt like Autumn. Pumpkin spice doesn’t do it for me, but a rainy trip to a pumpkin patch with the kiddo, along with freshly made cinnamon and sugar donuts and hot cocoa…now that feels like Autumn. #pumpkin #donuts #cocoa

Last night was such a fun Raft stream. Managed to get the 2 gardens finished on either side of the upper deck walkway. I think they turned out great and both of these garden areas might be my new favorite parts of the raft. #raft #gamingsky

Yep, I am still bad at posting things lol. But here's another video. Was sick for a couple weeks so got behind, but this was fun to capture our first boar and use the cart for the first time. #valheim #gamingsky

I'm SUPER bad about any sort of social media (my excuse is I'm old =P). But I am going to put some effort into posting when I am going live or a new video. So, I will catch up with a new series I started where I play Valheim for the first time in over 4 years. #Valheim

Last night streamed some Raft and after the stream, sat down, and thought this was a fun and cozy screenshot. And then I saw my unpainted wall glaring at me. Didn't want to get up and fix it yet >.< #Raft

As my daughter would say, “Hi Penguin fam!” My daughter recorded her first Roblox video so I thought I would promote it. I’m still very terrible at this social media stuff lol. She had so much fun making this.
