More Outdoor Time

   Thank God for such beautiful weather during this quarantine!  We had so many nice days and we are taking full advantage! 

She loves her swing

She picked out her outfit.  Can you tell? 

   One day, all the teachers at the elementary school did a drive-by parade.  Our street happened to be on the parade route.  The kids were so excited to see all of their teachers drive by.  It was a really neat moment and I am not sure who needed it more, the students or the teachers.

Their messages

Emmy wanted to help

Many, many hours have been spent on the trampoline!  

She is still a maniac on her scooter!  

We are so blessed to have an amazing track literally right across the street.  It's a great place to get some exercise! 

Covid Projects

   Another big Covid project that Joey and I decided to tackle was redoing some furniture.  I hated the black furniture that we have had in the dining room for years and years.  I looked at buying a brand new set,  but I honestly couldn't really find anything that I loved and they were all so expensive.  The set we currently was from Pottery Barn and a nice set.  I decided to try my hand at chalk paint.  It took four coats to cover the black, but from a distance it looks pretty good.  I also found a new China cabinet for a great price.  I love the way it all came together. 

The new China cabinet.  I like it so much more than our old one.  

The "new furniture"

Joey tackled our dresser.  It now matches the rest of our bedroom.  I like they way it turned out.  

Cookies

    Katy purchased another cookie kit to keep the kids busy.  They always love decorating cookies and love eating them even more!
