We're still distance learning (it's going a little bit better each week - thank goodness!):



Dinner courtesy of this guy (Pasta Puttanesca - school project to make a food from a book/Lemony Snicket):





These 2 guys have become BIG fans of biking the Neuse River Trail (they completed a 20 mile trip over the weekend):



Fletch has been getting his 50 hits in almost every day:



& he's been working out as much as he can (pull ups are his new fav exercise):

#14

We did our best to celebrate Quinn's 14th birthday (even under "stay at home" orders), and I think he ended up having a great day! :)

A surprise birthday car parade yesterday (he was completely surprised and embarrassed - in a good way!):







A surprise balloon tower for our rock star:







Birthday gifts of guitar cord, Marshall amp and USA Crocs:



Ice cream sundaes:



And a little "driving" lesson in the church parking lot:

Geocaching

With this "stay at home" order, we've been trying to find new fun things to do outside and by ourselves. The boys have been on a couple of geocaching adventures at the park and on the nature trail behind our house. It's been a fun way to get a little fresh air . . . and Rosie loves it, too!

Easter 2020

He is risen . . . He is risen indeed!

Brant's Birthday

Today was Brant's birthday. He spent the morning at the office and came home to celebrate with lunch and a "slideshow" made by Holden.

H's favorite 2 slides (showing his love with jokes about Dad's bald head and old age - ha) . . .





Quinn had an afternoon full of math, so these 3 guys went on a LONG bike ride to enjoy the beautiful weather . . .





Holden and Rosie rode with Brant to pick up pizza for dinner. Rosie usually rides in the very back of my minivan, but she absolutely LOVED riding with Brant and sticking her head out of the window. Pure joy . . .



Happy Birthday to the oldest of my 4 guys! We love you!!!

Guys Night Out(side)

The boys decided to camp out last night, and they had an absolute blast!

***I was more than happy to allow them this "guys only" adventure! Ha!









The original 4 boys:


The final 3 boys (Q decided to come into the house at 2am to sleep in his nice, comfy bed instead!):
