June.

Whoof, it's been awhile. Everything is pretty much the same, and not the same.

For example: the yellow mustard has died out on the trail, but the thistle is blooming!

The kids finished third and first grade, and both apparently passed.
After all of the nagging to have them complete their work, and then go back and re-do work that was substandard, the end of year grading simply registered how consistently they had participated in the online learning, not what their scores were overall. They both got a slew of C's, for "consistently." As they say, C's get degrees!

I gave Tim an amazing hair cut! (you get what you pay for)


We've ridden bikes almost every day - Adam is finally steady and confident on his bike, and able to start himself. Ellie has gotten strong enough that she can ride her bike to and from the school, which is especially nice because it hardly fits in the car, and our bike rack hasn't arrived yet. I am usually following fairly close behind her, but once Adam is good to go, I'm definitely going 1980s parent and just locking them outside and saying they can eat whatever berries they find and drink from the hose.

And of course, using our membership to Grizz's resort and spa many days a week. Adam loves being a shark boy, even though he has no front teeth.
