Not much excitement going on with Emma's farm. Today she bought pigs. After school we took advantage of the nice weather and went to 3 parks. It's not even summer and we've already crossed off over half of our city parks. We're

We've had rain pretty much all weekend. I'm glad that all our trees and plants are getting watered at the barn. I just planted 2 honeycrisp apple trees before the rain rolled in. Since we haven't been able to play outside we introduced the

Emma has been working hard on buying and building her farm. We also hosted wrestlemania in our living room this morning. This afternoon it was time for a couple playgrounds. Emma rode her scooter around the block and picked some flowers for me. We ended the day with s'

One of Emma's assignments today was to make puppets and perform a puppet show for her family. Olivia had another meeting with her class this morning. She is always super excited to see her teachers and friends. As soon as the girls woke up they asked if they

We spent another beautiful weekend at the barn. We were busy, so I don't have many pictures. It was perfect weather to do a lot of planting - 14 trees, 3 rose bushes, 2 blueberry bushes, 2 raspberry bushes, 2 blackberry bushes and 40 strawberry plants. Whew! The

Today was a teacher learning day, so Emma didn't have any distance learning assignments. I didn't think we'd be doing anything outside since the forecast said it was going to rain most of the day. Turns out the forecast was completely wrong. We made
