It's been a LONG while

 I haven't posted in half a year.  Life has been busy and wild around here.  I am hoping that a fall rhythm will allow for more time to blog and to figure out a way to get the blogs published since that is really the point of the blog and it hasn't happened since 2015! 

I decided to just pick up where I left off in March.  Here are some pics from M and T's time with grandparents while we were in Mexico and in MO while they were on Spring Break.  They had two great weeks with grandparents and Brandon and I enjoyed the extended time of focusing on each other and on some much needed post covid/homeschool self care.  

While we were in Mexico and having a catch up work week at home without kids, the kids were busy having LOTS of fun with grandparents!   We are SO VERY GRATEFUL for this time both for Brandon and I and for the kids.  They are making memories that they will always cherish.

Indoor water park #1

Thankful for indoor pools in the winter!

T:  I wore one of Dad's Tshirts to school to remember him.

T: My hair was pretty wild after we took it out of the buns.

M had a choir concert while we were in Mexico


He seems to be enjoying himself.

This face haha.

Fancy hair.  Silly cat.

Playing games with grandparents is great fun.

Another day, another game.

Temps are a lot warmer in MO.  I guess that means the kids went to a warm spot for Spring Break :)

Building a fort.

*Pretty much our only picture from our week without the kids.  Sunshine was VERY happy to see Brandon.

More games in MO.

Three Pianists!

Pancakes every morning.

Another indoor water park, this time with cousins.

Looks like fun!
They also went to an indoor arcade, laser tag, roller rink, etc!
T: I have so much for with A, my best friend.

This looks wild.

The skaters!

T: Everywhere I go I find an animal to love.

Getting outdoors is great, especially when you know it is much colder at home.
