Checking out Laravel Mix. I am looking for a new build tool as CodeKit is not working well in a team environment.

I updated a Codepen project from four years ago last night. I had given myself the challenge in 2019 to create the NCAA tournament bracket in CSS Grid Layout. I updated the bracket for this year’s tournament and added the March Madness logo.

My son, Ryan, participated in his first art show on Tuesday. He is part of OMAS (Organization of Murray Art Students) and they had their annual art show this week. There were around 170 entries and only around a third were accepted into the show. Ryan entered 3 objects and all 3 made it into the show. We are very proud of our freshman graphic design student.

I am happy the Jayhawks beat Howard today in the first round of the 2023 NCAA MBB Tournament. #rockchalk #marchmadness #reloadthewagon

Two losses to Texas in a week’s time have made me a little bit nervous. But I have decided to pick my Hawks to repeat as NCAA Champions. Rock Chalk!

I remember this passage from when I first read this book in college. The larger context is that Bridges was discussing how God takes all the events in our life–both good and bad–to work together for our ultimate good. This illustration really brought the point home to me.

I remember reading this passage laying on a couch in San Diego while on a Campus Crusade for Christ summer project.

Six years ago I tweeted the following: Wish there was a way to set height of element in proportion to width in CSS. So if I wanted a square, I could set height to 100% of width.

Today, I have a way to do that with aspect-ratio. I could set aspect-ratio: 1 to achieve a square with an element.

I expanded this note into a blog post, Aspect-ratio and container query units six years later.

It was a year ago that my son and I visited Murray State University for the first time. He had an interview for a presidential fellowship scholarship on that day. We found out a week later that he had been awarded the scholarship. A year later, he is almost halfway through his second semester studying graphic design at Murray State.

My son wore the same sweatshirt to the Murray State basketball game that I attended with him a couple of weeks ago.

I traveled up to Murray State this weekend to spend time with my son and take in a Murray State basketball game. The Racers won by a point in overtime. It was the first time that I have seen a Murray State athletic team win this school year. I attended two volleyball games and a football game during family weekend in September and we saw the basketball team play in Chattanooga in November.
