With COVID cases too high for in-person learning, the girls enjoyed their first week of virtual school. We set up little cubicles using poster cardboard. It seems to do the trick. They are slated to go back in person tomorrow, but that has been postponed due to a large snow storm that is heading our way!
We just received the digital versions of the school photos. I somehow convinced them to dress alike, but I have a feeling that the older two removed their dresses as soon as the photos were taken. Here they are, the three reluctant princesses:
With the new lockdown in effect due to soaring COVID numbers, we had little choice than to embrace winter:
 |
| Climbing trees |
 |
| Out for a promenade |
 |
| skiing |
 |
| Outdoor ringette |
 |
| Building a snowman while her sisters played ringette |
And just like that, school was out two days early due to exponentially rising COVID cases. No more homework, no more school lunches and no more early mornings….For the time being. Here are some of the things that the girls have been doing to pass the time:
 |
| Doing arts and crafts |
 |
| Making graham cracker candy houses |
 |
| Being a clown |
 |
| Wearing oversized Sherpa hoodies |
 |
| Going on adventures |
 |
| Playing in a park in Snow Suits |
And so it was that it snowed in the fall….A perfect time to don winter gear, and visit some animals that enjoy being out in the snow:
Albeit through a window, the girls recently got to meet their new cousin, born mid-October. They fought to see who would get to the window first…Because they simply have to fight over everything…
Halloween might be over for the kids, but not for the squirrels…They didn’t even seem to care that the pumpkins had several layers of paint on them:
