We hope y'all have been able to enjoy the holiday season so far even in the weirdness of 2020. It's been a challenging year for so many reasons but looking back, we also have so many things to be thankful for. 😄 Firstly, our beautiful daughter was born in June! Our three-year-old son also just started preschool last month and is loving it. Our YouTube channel reached 100k subscribers and we had our first video hit 1 million views. 🎉 We had our work featured in Time Magazine and were nationally recognized on Fox/CNN/NBC/GMA for "saving Halloween". 🤘🏼💀 We appeared in an article in MAKE magazine alongside some awesome creators like Mark Rober, Jimmy DiResta, and Bob Claggett. And through all this, Jay also managed a promotion to VP of Product Development at Faceware, where he works full-time developing products for facial motion capture technology.

It's been a year full of wins but managing creator burnout (and just sheer exhaustion) has been a huge challenge for us. The theme for 2021 is going to be "balance" and the constant battle to maintain it while continuing to pursue the things we love and contribute to the community we love so much to be a part of.

Thank you so much for helping to support what we do. We’re incredibly grateful for you guys and we’re so excited for the new year!! It’s going to be WICKED! 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼💀
