March 2020

 The month it all started.  What a strange month.  But it started off normal.  I took Dylan and Mitchell skiing one last time. 

The girls had Festival (where they play two songs in front of a judge).  And then their recital the next day.  They did great!

Kylee was practicing to sing in Sacrament Meeting.  But then church got cancelled.  Ryan was scheduled to speak as well.  I was bummed.

Kaden is enjoying Bears vs Babies and I think it's such a cute game.

I saw a post with all these hilarious pictures from China (I assume, perhaps it's other countries too).  I was dying at the animals and water jugs.

Kylee has been wanting to make a cake, so Rachel came over and they got to baking.  

Kylee drew a picture of Rachel.  

At this point school was officially cancelled for an indeterminate amount of time.  We started online school from home, and social distancing which meant we didn't go anywhere or play with friends.  Boo.  We did a lot of puzzles, but this puzzle was the hardest one.  It took a long time and I promised the kids ice cream if they finished it.  They did right when the governor ordered all non-essential businesses close down for three weeks.  I wasn't sure if ice cream was essential or not, lol.  So I hurried to Cold Stone to get it just in time.

These magnets are fun and I call this geometry study.

During quarantine I did a lot of running.  It was all I could do, the pool closed down and it was too cold to ride my bike.  And I needed an out.  It was for my sanity.  I kept doing my marathon training even though I had a feeling all the races would be cancelled.  Other than running, I started on a project.  While cleaning out my dad's house a few years ago, I ended up with all our old photos and my brothers wanted them digitalized.  At the time my printer scanner was not very good.  But we have since gotten a new printer and it's much better.  So I spent hours scanning pictures onto the computer.  I came across some really great ones.
