First was Team gymnastics camp where they added on an extra three hours a day of gymnastics during the week on top of the 2 or three hours that they go each day regularly. They loved every moment. Gymnastics has been quite good for all of us. Knowing that we take necessary precautions such as temp screenings, tons of cleaning, wearing masks during activities, it's so worth it and important to our mental health to belong to such a great group of people. Cienna, Kaylee, and Mommy get to go and enjoy while Daddy gets a little alone time since he is amazingly handling the girls at home while working in our home office on the days Mommy is at work. Both girls have certainly excelled. Cienna makes pretty much every back hand spring on the high beam, has flipped her Tsukahara into the pit, made baby giants on the low bar, and did her half twist on the floor. Kaylee did a double back into the pit, flipped her Tsukahara into the pit, did her giant on the low bar, and made her full twist on the floor. They also both got their choreography finished for both their optional floor and beam routines. They went to the same soccer camp that they have been to for the last 3 years and always happen to be on the same week as Harper and Ellie. Also realized that they live pretty close and made a play date bike ride around the neighborhood together as well as virtually keeping in contact.
Just after Daddy finally got his appointment at the DMV for his Real ID, cousin MiKayla came to visit with Ellie for a day when we had also made plans to meet/bike ride with one of Cienna's new friends from Marshall. They moved close to us right before we got a chance to meet in person. So we all went on a bike ride around the neighborhood and got to know each other.
Then came the chaos, I mean hazzard, I mean Blizzard, and the storm, I mean lunatic, I mean Luna... so honestly we had such a great time kitten 'sitten those two. They certainly kept us entertained and I think they also had a great time! The Natals dropped by on their way to San Diego when the kittens were here as well. We all enjoyed the company. The cousins got an amazing sleep over, and we all had fun enjoying each others company including bike rides to local coffee shop, games, and sewing by Grace.
We've had some hiking outings to some local wetlands, the 100 acre woods in PV which we found our own adventure into the golf course, and finding our way under freeway after encountering many beautiful trees and landscape. Given the current situation there has been a rise in craft activities, Kan Jam, Soccer Golf, Juggling the Soccer ball, Trampoline as always, Backgammon, card games, Clavinova playing, room re-decorating, painting, more crafts like there's no tomorrow, and family bonding time!
The honesty and humor that we've always made our top priority has made this time so fun for us and we look forward to some adventure as the school year approaches. We have a bunch of family birthday shout outs as always this month. Auntie Dana and Cousin Erik, Corey Snow, Cousin Ashley, Cousin Erin, Uncle Mike, Uncle RJ, and Uncle B. We also did some work on the Bronco. Figured out the instrument cluster, fixed some fuses and the blower motor is now fully working!
However, we didn't take many pictures. Trying to stay away from those electronic devices that will be all consuming with all virtual school before us.
