Fun During Our Extended Break From School

We have been enjoying ourselves during this extended summer. During Covid-19 school was done by packet/ online, dance by zoom and soccer was cancelled. Well thankfully we have finished the school year out. The kids had amazing teachers and we were so sad the year was cut short with them. Soccer and dance have started back up so the kiddos are excited to have their activities back in person.  During our time at home with no outside activities we had fun and accomplished lots.

First we all found a show on Disney plus we all enjoyed, I remember it being on when I was a teenager. Now we are watching the original show that created the spin off series we finished. 





Chris and I found a show we really enjoyed on Netflix, I can't wait for season 2 to come out.

We also swam and played outside. We visited the bamboo park and also planted flowers ( that are still alive! )



I hope you all have a wonderful week!

Hope

    Hope many of us learned that we can be quite happy-at-home, during this Horrrrible Time. One good thing, to come out of a Rottttttten situation!

    Finding fun things to watch is a big plus. As you did.

    And I have gotten back into Reading Mode. I go into slumps, but it's fun for me, when I pop out of a slump. And loving my E-booms on my tablet! Have a site, which suggests Free and Inexpensive E-books and am making good use of it.

    Another Plus, to a Horrrrrrible Time! We have to keep noticing them. -smile-

      We definitely enjoyed our time at home! I loved showing the kids shows and movies I watched growing up. Reading is one of my favorite things too. Our library has finally opened back up for curbside pickup but they do offer ebooks to check out and that has been wonderful too especially when they were not open.

Pumpkin Patch 2020

 We visited our local pumpkin patch yesterday. We were not able to go last year, so we were so happy to go this year. We were blessed with a beautiful sunny 70 degree day. It was very bright outside so it was hard to keep our eyes open for pictures. Haha.  We had so much fun in the corn maze, walking through the sunflower field, and playing in the big hay stack. We got to share some of our favorite foods boiled peanuts and nachos. Before we left we rode the hayride to pick our pumpkins and finished up the day with a funnel cake. I am so thankful for these sweet memories with my family. We will carve our pumpkins tonight and get ourselves prepped for the week ahead. I hope you have a wonderful week! Hope

First Day of School 2020

 On Monday my babies started back to school. In these uncertain times we had different options on how we would begin school this year. We could do virtual public school, go back to the traditional classroom, or homeschool. At this point my husband and I decided that it would be best for our kiddos to be back in the traditional classroom. There isn't an easy choice about school in these crazy times. Our school is smaller, they are wearing masks, and taking social distancing precautions. We have prayed about our decision and feel we did what is best for our family. I am praying for the parents out there that are having to make choices about what to for school this year, please know I respect whatever choice you make and I know it's not easy.   How did my babies grow up so fast!?! Brody's first last day of elementary school. 4th grade Evie's first day of 2nd grade.  I hope you all have a wonderful week! Hope

 Just a few things I am thankful for Polka dot rain boots and pretty leaves while running errands. Pretty fall flowers from my sweet hubby. A cute hat for days I don't want to fix my hair. Also a happy puppy waiting for her people to get out of school.  I hope your week is going wonderfully! Hope
