32nd day of quarantine

          32nd day of quarantine😢. Today I lost my tooth🦷. The weather was very warm  and sunny we went on a bike ride! Carson showed me how good of a brother he is today i love him!. I did not see anyone out walking today just my own family. I made sure I washed my hands  over 200 times todaytoday.

???????

Day 30....THIRTY......3-0.......

The boys are sick of being home and dealing with mainly me.  I am sick interacting with mainly boys...... Being asked daily how much longer they have to stay home.

Grateful for the reprieve of them going downstairs to visit with Gaga ever so often. 

Chris has found solice in the office. On good days he comes down for 1-2 hours on the evening for dinner and helping out with bedtime. On Sundays, he tends to find a way to spend the afternoon and evening with us. 

This week:

 Chance got a bloody nose from Chris accidentally kicking a soccer ball right at his face and a bloody lip from Cayden throwing a hard ball at Cooper and catching Chance's face instead.

 The boys created a new game, bumper bikes. It lasted approximately 15 minutes before I had to stop them and give them the lecture about not being able to make a trip to the hospital right now. 

Building forts with sticks in the backyard has been a creative outlet for the older 2 and a new item to destroy for the younger 2. Cooper has done well with keeping his patience having his firt repeatedly tore down. 

The boys and I enjoyed a big tension scream tonight during supper. They realized mom could go a long time without a breath and scream louder than all of them. Poor Chance wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry when we started. By the end, he thought it was rather entertaining. 

We were able to decorate some eggs (thanks to some friends dropping off some spare decorating kits).

We had surprise visitors and kept our distance when visiting.

Enjoyed several yummy smoothies. 

Did some artsy stuff.

Had a pretty big hail storm.

Did some cutting of hair...

We are having fun making some good memories, while trying to stay healthy and safe and not drive each other insane!

Looking forward to Sunday and celebrating am empty tomb!!

27th day of quarantine

           Today I did school on zoom💻. I saw a lot of people walking in our neighborhood👦. We had taco salad🌮.  We played outside with water guns🔫. We watched videos on the tv📺.

25th day of quarantine

        Today I went mushroom hunting but found none🍄. I had some homemade bread for a snack🍞. I played outside⚽. We saw Gaga Linda but had to stay a few feet away because of the virus👩. Gaga had a water issue and we moved some of her furniture around💧.

Day 24, Second Video Post ITS FIXED NOW

See Ya L8R, Carson

Gardening, One of my Favorite Pastimes

Hi, Carson Here,

Dream Spring Garden!

It's Spring and the gardens are already starting to bloom! My daffodils, crocus, and hyacinth are all bursting and ready to bloom! Oh, how I love Spring. Yesterday we made a little fort in the woods. It is complete, it even has a floor of hand planted moss.
 It was nice to see raspberry vines, spring onions, and the flourishing bushes. Tomorrow's APRIL FOOL'S! I'll post some images of my mischievous pranks. Hopefully no one gets hurt,😈. See y'all l8r.

Mom's log...

Mom's log, day 18:

We are very thankful that the weather is getting nicer. We have spent 2 hours outside today and will continue to do so until we have to go in to eat. The occupants are getting restless, but playing in the woods and building forts is doing them good. It is also helpful to get out of the house so Chris does not have all sorts of loud noises in the background when making calls. Just when we think this is doable and won't be too difficult, things happen... But the days seem to be getting easier. we got a bunch of our outdoor toys out this weekend when we had the nice weather. Our garden is almost ready to be planted in. Hammocks are up, the slackline is up, the trampoline is out, and best of all, nature is still all around us and we are not isolated from it!
