distance learning: day 24
I don't have any pictures from distance learning today. Maybe that's a sign that its getting a little easier since Emma is able to do a lot of it on her own now that she has the hang of it. I do have pictures of our

day off monday
No distance learning for Emma on Monday. We enjoyed the last day of our 4 day weekend with some exciting events. Our ladybugs started hatching. Our cilantro started sprouting. We ended our evening with a parade at Olivia's preschool. Emma begged to skip dance class so she could

The girls were really excited when they saw our tulips are blooming. Today I went and picked up some plants. We have a huge open bed next to the tulips, which is perfect for another butterfly garden. We also planted a bunch of sunflowers in there too. If it'

let's go fly a kite
I don't know how long Olivia flew a kite today.... but it seemed like most of the day. It was a hot, sunny day, so we made snow cones for the first time in a long time.

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

free friday
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
