It poooured on our drive up to the mountain, turning to snow juuust at the turnoff. Happy that it snowed, harder that it was heavy! Little kiddo legs had to work extra, but the snow pairing with our snack moment was the chefs kiss to the day:)

We made it back in time for the second half of Meryl’s basketball game! It was so much fun to see the girls play (against an all boys team this time). The biggest decision for any of them is ‘who’ to pass to at the start of play. Also an actual spelling word for Meryl too:)

The John Deere tractor turned into a washing machine.

Which car is the fastest? Gotta race them all and keep a record!

There they are! Bandit, Bluey, Bingo, and Chili! And the audience even got to play keepy uppy at the end!

She did it! She may have freaked out, subbed out, and subbed back in, but she played a double header and continues to call herself an expert dribbler:)

Phew! We made it through another dentist appointment cavity free with these smooshed together teeth! Floss, baby, floss! Molars are in, teeth are primed to come out, and the mosh pit will rave on when his wisdom teeth push through in another couple of years.

Can you imagine just walking up to a friend and offering to carry them around for fun? It’s a thing with kids. And they think it’s fun.

Don’t worry, we unearthed him and he was still breathing:) A bit of a sweat slick, but still fully functioning.

Turns out, when you spend years amidst a pandemic avoiding shared surfaces, learning how to drink from a water fountain gets lost in the shuffle! Not much made it in, but there was plenty of hype to hydrate!

And then we went to a free evaluation class.

Why not try a free class too? Martial arts classes have commenced. Lucky for us, it’s super close to the house! Self defense! And more water fountain drinking practice:)

Meryl celebrated her half birthday in class (the workaround for summer birthdays) and her classmates made cards that were bound into a book for her to treasure! Us parents, on the other hand, got to read a favorite book to her friends, Every Night Is Pizza Night…and tried to be halfway cool:)
