2024 YEAR IN REVIEW
What a year! Not gonna lie—it’s been an incredibly challenging one, but in all the best ways. We can’t believe how much life has changed. From crawling to running through national parks, forests, and historic sites across 13 states, to visiting family and friends up and down the East Coast, Jack Fox showed us what true adventure looks like: parenthood.
2024 has been a true rollercoaster, but with every dip and turn, we’ve discovered more about ourselves and our journey together. We’re truly blessed and endlessly grateful to have each other. Here’s to another year of growth, love, and adventure.
Happy New Year!

Countless Hikes and Parks
In 1 day we visited 5 waterfalls in 2 states! At least 3-4 times a month we took a hike or visited a state park.

13 States and Counting
Jack Fox has now been to 13 states so far, Dave at 27 and Lindsay at 43.

Blue Ridge Moments
We are back 'home' living in Asheville. Yes, we are staying and excited for things ahead.

Prioritize meaningful quality time by taking Lindsay on more thoughtful and memorable dates, deepening our connection and shared experiences. Commit to engaging in more deep-focused work, maximizing productivity and creativity in all endeavors. Embark on more exciting “Dave adventures”, creating lasting memories together. Strive to exceed business revenue goals, pushing boundaries and achieving new heights of success. Plan a family road trip vacation, exploring new places and building cherished family memories. Support Lindsay’s goals and help her continue to grow and flourish, continually strive to nurture Jack, be a great example for him and have lots of fun. Focus on creating a spacious and harmonious living environment, fostering comfort, tranquility, and room for growth.

Written by Mom & Dad:
This year, we're excited to help you collect more Junior Ranger Badges, exploring the great outdoors and learning about nature. We'll embark on the adventure of potty training together, cheering on every milestone. There will be endless fun playing in the mud, running through the forests, splashing in puddles and climbing to your heart's content. We'll encourage you to build friendships, sharing laughs and creating wonderful memories with new friends. We'll work on sleeping through the night, helping you rest well and wake up ready for new adventures. There will be plenty of creative time with lots of art, music and letting your imagination run wild. Most importantly, we'll cherish every moment spent with you, filling our days with love, laughter, and joy as a family.

Mama
Embrace the flow of life, letting go of worries and trusting that everything will unfold as it should. Focus on one step at a time. Elevate her rock climbing skills, reconnect with her art, and reignite her passion for teaching yoga. Work with children, dive deeper into meditation and reading and strive to be the best version of herself every day. Cultivate presence, patience and support within her family, nurturing relationships with love and understanding. Stand by Dave's side, supporting his goals and dreams, and helping him succeed in all his endeavors. Be there for her little Foxy one, providing for him and striving to be the best mom she can be—while growing, learning and evolving alongside each other. She’ll continue her inner growth, launch her children's books, dance like no one is watching and let love guide her.
…
And always embrace the adventures.
A MESSAGE TO FAMILY & FRIENDS
Dear Family and Friends,
As 2025 begins, we want to take a moment to reflect and share our love and gratitude for all of you. This past year was one of incredible change, growth, and resilience for our family.
For the first time in many, many years, we didn’t send out a Christmas card. With everything that came after Hurricane Helene—figuring out all the things and living in what felt like a limbo state—the days moved so fast. We’re sorry for not sending our greetings and sharing in the holiday spirit in that way, but please know how much we love and appreciate each and every one of you.
To those who donated to our Hurricane Helene relief efforts or sent even the smallest item our way to help us through it all: thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are forever grateful for your generosity and kindness.
A special thank you to Mom/Nini, Denise Corigliano, for opening her home to us for 2 1/2 months. And to the Barrasse and Gambo families, thank you for making our Christmas in Northeast PA so memorable. Dad/Papa Bill Barrasse dressing as Santa was truly a highlight for Jack (and for us too!)... and we know the little Fox love spending time with his cousin Henry. Words simply cannot express how full our hearts are because of all of you.
As we welcome 2025 back in our home in Asheville, NC, we look forward to making the year ahead one of adventure, growth, and learning together as a family.
Here’s to creating wonderful memories, embracing new opportunities, and cherishing every moment with loved ones. Happy New Year! May it be filled with love, joy, and endless possibilities for all of us.
With all our love,
Dave, Lindsay & Jack Fox
