Post-School Activities

 After hanging out with your school friends all week, you come home, get online, and start hanging out with them online. 

The game/hangout of choice is either Among Us (Milo organized 10 players one Friday) or Multi-Craft (poor man's Minecraft). RJ somehow gets to be two players when playing Among Us - which explains why there are two devices on his bed.

New Dirt Bike Trail

 Doug and RJ discovered a new dirt bike trail. Plenty of scary jumps, miles of dirt single-track, and about 50 smaller bumps. We are definitely going back.

Outdoor jobs

Sunny, lo-humidity days on weekends are a call for ... outdoor chores! We spent a good part of the day gardening, painting, and waxing skis (no pictures ... bummer).

Julia paints treehouse rail (and helped with garden painting touch ups)

We also had some fun ... trying to bombard leaves with rocks while out for a bike ride with Bradley.

Grandma and Grandpa come to town

Vaccinations have started and things are opening up. Grandma and Grandpa flew in to spend time with us!

• Day 1 was the national arboretum
• Days 2 - 3 was fishing, pickleball, and hiking at Whitetail
• Day 4 was RJ's hockey game and a visit from Ms. Kimberly and parents
• Day 5 was church, yardwork, and dinner with Grandad Johnson

 

Kids and Grandma at the Arboretum

 

Fishing is always fun, but it was more fun after learning the secret from a local!

 

Pickleball at Whitetail. We also played in our driveway in McLean which provided the added challenge of a sloped and curved court.

Sunday Before Easter

With Covid, we made the decision to get dressed up and attend church the week before Easter.
