5 years

March 13, 2025

Today, March 13th is the 5 year anniversary of the day the world shut down for us. The kids came home from school on Friday the 13th of 2020 and just never went back… This is what I wrote on Monday 3/16/20:

Well, there are worse places to be stuck for the next 3 weeks than at home! School is cancelled and we’re practicing “social distancing” to keep ourselves and others healthy. The kids were supposed to have eDay work for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week but, after there were several confirmed cases right in our community, they just cancelled it all until April 6th. The kids are excited about no school but not super excited about spending the next 3 weeks in isolation!

Little did we know that 3 weeks would turn into months. What a strange time we lived through.

Happy to be back to “normal” and love to see these kids thriving in school!

Happy Thursday!

Between school and all the sports and all the things, we’re super busy…but not too busy for a game!

Fun fun!

Orthodontist

March 10, 2025

Spencer had an orthodontist checkup last week and he’ll be getting braces this summer. Thankfully he’ll be a one and one!

Not sure if I reported by Maxwell finished up his Invisalign two months ago. His smile is straight and sparkling!

Artist!

March 3, 2025

Maxwell is taking art this semester at the junior high and had a piece in the Fine Arts Show!

So good!! We were lucky to have a special guest in town that could attend and check out the art in person.

Way to go Maxwell!

Here are some other pieces he’s brought him this year.

So impressive!
