Quarantine is a fancy word for "trapped"

Checking the house we can hopefully move into someday...sigh...

Toilet paper towers

Restaurant of the week? Famous Nick's!

Easter
Proof for Charlie that the Easter Bunny is real


Scavenger hunt for their baskets



Easter brunch- it was a lot quieter this year :(




Might as well play in it...


She got a letter from her teacher- made her day!
  
At-home learning continues- no one is a fan of this new normal.  Charlie played some games and did yoga assigned by his teachers to break it up yesterday.

Quarantine Continues

Since there's no end in sight we're trying to do what we can to keep busy and stay sane at home.

Camping inside- gotta have s'mores and dill pickle chips just like real camping

Decorating and dyeing eggs



NickDonalds was the restaurant of the week 
(this guy has actual McDonalds experience- Claire was IMPRESSED)

Distance learning- the first day was hard but we're all finding our new groove.  It's a lot to figure out all at once.





Look who finally lost his fingernail after slamming his finger in the car door!  He washed it and put it under his pillow hoping the "nail fairy" would show up.  Um, nope.  That's weird, kid.

Claire got some new roller-blades so she's been all about that lately

Practicing some baseball-  he's missing being able to play. 

Rock hunting in our landscaping- not a bad haul!
