    Goodbye Old Reliable Blue. We went EVERYWHERE with you. You carried tiny children and BIG children and lots of children all at once. So many miles, soccer games, Disney, and more. The best thing $15 dollars ever bought. Thank you for carrying our burden for 13 years – all 7 kids. Tchau.

    Firsy Week of Summer Vacation

    No Comments

    We had Tiago’s birthday on Monday and then Joel called to tell us that he was really sick! We were worried that it might be Corona so we quarantined for the rest of the day and 1/2 of Weds when his test results came back negative. So we resumed normal yellow zone activities.

    Cali wanted to make a cake and practice her decorating skills:

    LOL’s

    A day at the pond for Ellie’s birthday!

    And lots of swimming – 90 degree days!

    Friday night games with M and J and kids:

    Tiago wanted a cousins Pool Party for his birthday! And the cousins came and we had a blast: Gus and Dagny, Mia and Luca, Julia, Sam and Christian, Ashlyn, Anna and Ellie!

    Tiago got in the pool around NOON and stayed in all day!

    Cousins came and made everything more fun!

    We had cake and popsicles and Gatorade and popcorn!

    Back to the slip n slide and games:

    Party ended at 5:00 but Joel and Megan, Mae, Dagny and Gus stayed for dinner by the pool!

    Happy Birthday Buddy!

    PRESENTS are always so fun – This guys reactions are always Great!

    He played with his new toys all morning. The older boys put together his PJ Masks Headquarters and everyone helped him with his watches, pool toys, and Droid. Emily Stadler brought him a Lego! And we had to make sure that the Pool Cake was ready for the Pool party!

    After lunch we prepped for the party. And then had cousins over from 2pm-5pm! After the party Joel and Megan stayed for dinner and we came in and crashed at 8pm. Tiago was non stop all day! He is such a fun and happy boy! I can’t believe our baby is 5.

    We took him swimming Friday evening! It took me, LaNell, Michelle and all of the kids to keep him alive!

    Bed at 7:30 and awake at 7:30: We went to the park all day Saturday and then played Sunday morning until naptime and his parents came after that. It was fun having him running around the house! We all enjoyed his smile and energy.

    The end of the crazy Corona ONline Homeschool. The kids really missed their teachers and were happy that they got to say goodbye.

    The older boys didn’t get to say goodbye but we are all ready for summer!
