Another Quarantine Week in the books...

Daily walks are good for the mind, body, and spirit!  Kaden usually takes his scooter.
Kaden has loved all the boxes we get...

Winston has become rotten...he is going to be depressed when we go back to normal life


We have baked a TON during these last 6 weeks...these were Chocolate Chip Carmel Cookie Bars

Gratitude Journal...I try to journal at least once a week


We have played outside a ton...Water guns, bubbles, ball, tag...the list goes on











Most days we do some homeschooling...we always do Math and Reading
Kaden's fav book to read...Ten Apples Up on Top

We also play lots of indoor games...Uno is Kaden's fav

6 and a half weeks total so far of Safer at Home.  I am still loving it, and I feel guilty at times for it because I know so many people are struggling with it.  We try to make the best of each day.  Some days are seem easier than others...and that is usually due to the weather.  Seems like the sunny days are easy and the rainy days are harder...maybe that is reflective on life itself!  While so many are eager for things to go "back to normal"....I am okay with this current lifestyle for as long as we can make it last!

Walks with Winnie...this should be a novel! LOL!!!

The look he gives me after making with walk over 6 miles with me
This morning Kaden joined us!
During this Safer at Home/Quarantine, I have walked and walked and walked.  After the first couple of weeks of walking, Kathryn and Kaden were over it.  And now, I think Winston is over it too.  However, I am NOT over it, so I am still making everyone walk weather permitting.  Yesterday, Winston and I went on two big walks (a little over 3 miles each walk), and today we have already logged a mile with Kaden.  Gyms might be closed, but working out at home and taking big walks is not!  Plus, it is good for the heart and mind!!!!!

Quarantining....still...and I love it!

Snuggles and Power Rangers...these are the best days!

Kite Flying and a beautiful windy day!

Church on the couch with Kaden
Kyle took the kids to pick out flowers for me...just because!
One exhausted dog because we walk for miles everyday!
I was made for this Quarantine/Safer at Home Life!!!!!  I LOVE being home!  Everyday I am cooking, cleaning, schooling the kids, doing laundry, and I love it.  When Kyle comes home, everything is done, the kids are happy, and there is really no stress.  We spend our evenings playing games, watching TV, and just being together.  I know everyone is ready for things to "go back to normal," but I am okay with all of this lasting a little longer!
