Week SIX of COVID-19

This week the NC Governor announced that school will not be reopening for the end of this school year. We will continue with online learning from home. The girls are excited about that! Ella is a little bummed just because her birthday is May 31 and she won't be in school for it.
Once again, here are some highlights of our week.


Science experiments




We found a small secret park we could play at.
Benny also can do the monkey bars all by himself now.


Lily & Ella have learned to ride with NO HANDS.

NOT pictured: we had a fun make-your-own PIZZA party on Wednesday night.  Jake took some pictures and videos and put them on Instagram. My hands were too full of flour and dough for picture taking.
Also NOT pictured: Thursday we went on a "field trip." Our field trip consisted of some errands and some fun surprises. We first dropped off some art & notes for sweet friends. Then we stopped by a friend's home to borrow some books (since Lily has read EVERYTHING in our house and libraries are closed) and math manipulatives. Next we headed to Costco for gas, our first time getting gas in over 5 weeks. Finally, we went through the Chick-Fil-A drive through to use our freebie coupons for lunch. The little things have become special in our daily life - perspective can be such a gift.
