Governor Josh Shapiro, First Lady Lori Shapiro, Lieutenant Governor Austin Davis, and Second Lady Blayre Holmes Davis will host a State Dinner at the Governor’s Residence in honor of nine Pennsylvanians who have made a difference in their communities. The State Dinner will tell the stories of nine Pennsylvanians who do meaningful work to improve the lives of others across the Commonwealth.
The centerpiece of the evening’s program will be the presentation of the Governor’s Keystone Award, which each honoree will receive in recognition of the significant contributions they’ve made to their communities, donating their time, knowledge, and talents to help improve the lives of others.
Members of the Shapiro Administration’s cabinet will also attend the State Dinner, which will feature a string quartet from the NEPA Philharmonic.
“Josh and I are honored to welcome these inspiring Pennsylvanians and their families into our home so we can recognize the work they are doing to make our Commonwealth a better place,” said First Lady Lori Shapiro. “Their incredible stories show that no matter who you are or where you come from, you can make a difference in the lives of the people around you. All nine Pennsylvanians being honored tonight are examples of the power of one – one person serving their community, addressing the needs they see, lending a helping hand, can have a compounding nature and a large impact over time.”
“As I travel all across our Commonwealth, it’s the stories of Pennsylvanians who are making a difference in their communities that inspires me and keeps me going,” said Governor Josh Shapiro. “The First Lady and I are honored to recognize nine exemplary Pennsylvanians who are improving their communities, whether that means advocating for those too often forgotten and left behind, mentoring our children to ensure they have the tools to succeed, or supporting those who have served in uniform. We congratulate and thank them for their contributions to our Commonwealth, dedication to their communities, and commitment to service.”
The State Dinner is part of Governor and First Lady Shapiro’s efforts to reimagine the use of Governor’s Residence, opening the Residence up to more Pennsylvanians and organizing programs that inspire others to give back to their communities.

A couple months ago we replaced all our downstairs windows with new ones and the difference is amazing in terms of how easy they are to clean and how much nicer they are to look through now that there aren't 2044239 layers between us and the outdoors (no more storm windows, yay!). Today I found another perk to the new windows - they open up to the outside so easily that I can take pics of things outside without having to try to shoot through the glass.
I was trying to see if I could get a picture of a black squirrel that was in our yard (funny thing: I showed K the pic of the black squirrel and said "look, it's a black squirrel" and waited to see if he would correct me somehow and then he said "it's a grey squirrel" and waited to see if I would correct him somehow. I took the bait and argued that it had black fur, so it was a black squirrel but he told me that black squirrels are considered grey squirrels despite their fur color. So I was schooled!). Anyhow the black grey squirrel was cute and all, but I plane went by (we live by an air force base so it's a common sight) and caught my eye.
That was the last of the grey-blue sky today. It got cloudy & it's snowed a little, but it doesn't look like anything that will last unfortunately!
