Hockey

Trevor was able to go back on the ice with skating lessons with 4 of his hockey buddies and boy was he a happy camper!!  He did decide that this year he would only focus only on hockey which we were happy with.  Feels safer than soccer given this darn virus.  Just happy the rink is open and the boys understand social distancing and masks :)

May Happenings

For being relatively quarantined May was still a fun month around here.  Well, except for Toby who seemed to put himself in a time out LOL
Posing like a pop-star before she beat Trevor in a Ziggle race!

Everyone needs a mask now.  Even Bitty Baby!
Ashley loves to spend time in tents!
The darker the better!
Before selling Daddy's old BMW wheels the kids cleaned them up!
One Saturday Stuart Walton flew one of his old WWII planes around the state in support of all the front-line healthcare workers.  It flew right over Pinnacle since we are by Mercy hospital.  Goosebumps and thankfulness for our community.  Trevor was all about it, he knows everything about planes!

Still continuing with e-learning.  Toby usually gets roped in with Ashley!

Sometimes he gets to escape and sit by the oven if it's on.  What a cupcake!
Trevor learned all 50 state capitals the first weeks of quarantine so it was fun for him to help put together a United States puzzle to remind him!
Some new people moved in a few doors down and it turns out they have a 12 year old grandson Zach who will be 6th grader at the middle school Trevor will attend next year.
When Trevor heard that his 2nd grade friend Mabry fell while on her scooter and had some big cuts and a concussion he wanted to do something nice for her.  So he brought her her favorite Girl Scout cookies and wrote her a note.  Such a sweet boy!
Big Jenga on the patio these nice days!
More dance lessons via Zoom!
During art specials one day they learned how to draw donuts!  Turns out she's as good as her brother in that area!!!
More puzzle building!!
Bath crayons for the win this day!  Ashley is all about the rainbows!
Trevor dug out an old science kit and had fun with one of the experiments!
Ashley loves Twister!
Sometimes they get along really well and Mommy was so glad she was able to sneak this pic!
Lots of pool time!!
Ashley got to attend a small birthday party for her dance bud Jennie at a local art studio.  Of course, they painted unicorns :) 
And last but certainly not least was another fun moment in the new way of life...Sara's old gym friends came over for drinks, apps and dinner (that we ordered in from our favorite Italian restaurant that we normally meet at).  Can't tell by this QUICK picture but we set up our patio for a pretty perfect social distanced get together by placing extra tables by our outdoor table and making one big square with each couple having their own side.  We chatted and laughed and it was just great for the soul.  People arrived around 5 and didn't leave until after 9:30!  Can't wait for our next time together.  This is one special group!

Summer!!

Finally!!  Summer is definitely here - sunburns, popsicles, pool days with all the floats (we look like the Griswalds driving our golf cart to the pool!!), sprinklers and friends.  It's going to be a great summer!!

Last Day of School!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hallelujah! The last day of school!  And it was an easy one for the kiddos!  Just the attendance question!  WOO HOO!  Always fun to see the side by sides of the kiddos from beginning of the year to the end of the year too!  They’ve grown in height but also in personality, resiliency, independence, responsibility, academics and joy! Bring on summer!!
