 I'm loving this mask a dear friend sent me. I'm debating whether I should wear it to church when we start going or not.

Birthday!

I think it's now official- everyone in our area family has now had a Covid Birthday! While we still couldn't go have a "real" party, we were still able to celebrate Grandma Marriott!

The girls helped decorate the cake. We chose Boston Cream Pie Cake, and it was DELICIOUS!

Valentine's

Like all things Covid, we had to think outside the box for us to be able to celebrate Valentine's Day this year.

I'm starting to get good at thinking outside the box.

Valentine's was on Sunday, but we celebrated Monday with our recess group. We had the kids exchange Valentine's, Claire and Camille made some cupcakes to share, and we had our traditional fondue in the evening.

It was chilly, but thankfully warm enough to be OK.

Overall, it turned out really well- the kids had a blast and it felt normal- at least as normal as things can be right now. All in all, I think the kids had a great day.

Plenty of sugar for everyone!

Claire and her bestie Hannah:

There were about 30 kids, here's just a few of them as we were about to leave.

Camille's Wolf box:

YUM! We sure do love our traditional Valentine's fondue! This year instead of making a separate main dish, which never seems to work, I got pot stickers as well for us to dip. It was perfect.

Too Cold!

 We are at FREEZING temps- a high of 7 degrees today- so I got the girls to sewing to keep us occupied while we are stuck inside.

Audra finished her quilt top- now she just needs to bind it and she's done. I'm so impressed- it turned out so beautiful!

And Claire made a Harry Potter pillowcase for a Birthday gift for a friend:

And now we will see if snow falls. We might get up to 6 inches. We will see.
