Sleepy Bug

Halloween week was a very tiring week for our little bug. We had trunk-or-treating, pumpkin decorating, and she had a fall carnival at school (complete with face-painting, games, and lots of running around). She fell asleep on the way home from school three days this week. Poor tired girl...it's hard to be in kindergarten!

Ainsley's 11th Birthday in Lockdown

Image
My baby girl is ELEVEN today!!! She couldn't have a big party, but she sure had a special day.  We surprised her with yard signs ( cardmyyard.com ). We released the butterflies into the garden. They hung out on the kids' hands for a while before flying off.  Her gift from us was a purple hoverboard - she is so excited! Her neighborhood friends came and secretly decorated the garage for a little party. She was so surprised and loved sharing cake with her best friends. THEN to add even more excitement, two of her best friends from school came for a 'drive-by' socially-distant celebration. She was thrilled to see them drive up - she hasn't seen them in person since March 6, before Spring Break!! Both sets of grandparents gave her a new bike (she will get to go shopping and pick it out herself next week). She has grown so much and is in desperate need of a new bike!  My beautiful 11 year old... how time flies!

Momming Hard Day 9... until the end of time

Things were rolling along quite nicely yesterday (well, not really but let's not get caught up in subtraction regrouping lessons).  We were getting ourselves set up for success on this temporary schedule. We were learning things and reading things and writing things and then... the bottom dropped out. The governor announced all schools are closed for the rest of the year.  I'm sure all the other parents watching the news conference had the same physical reaction that I did. I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. Tears, anger, disbelief... my poor children. ALL these poor children. When they left for spring break they didn't realize it would be the last time they'd see their friends. The last time they'd see their teachers. Ainsley, in particular, is taking it the hardest. She's missing her last Lower School play. Her last Grandparents Day show.  No field day.  No fifth grade graduation. No class graduation party. She is heartbroken. The next time she sets

Parties, parties, parties!

We returned from Switzerland and immediately launched into several weeks of parties. It's been a busy but fun month, and we've enjoyed spending time with so many old (and new) friends!  First was our annual winter party, which was our first opportunity to break in the new bar with a large group. Even though this is our winter party, the temperatures soared into the sixties! We set up cornhole on the back patio and kept the doors open all night. It was a perfect evening!  Testing out the new beer pong table! Some winter cornhole!  Some of my favorite gals! Me and my favorite guy!  My DH even put on a little show (somehow there were people at the party who weren't aware of his clown past, so he had to prove his skills).  Some posing with the antlers. The following weekend we had Parker's birthday party! He was excited to celebrate at school with some cookies. He chose McDonald's for his birthday dinner out. Then on the we
