February 2021

 
 
Quarantine animals. I have started making felt things.  It is awesome to stab crap and come out with something cute.  It is so appropriate.


Playing


More SNOW.  It has been below freezing.


We have been playing a ton of Dr. Mario.


Hiking to the abandoned train tunnel.



More felt things.



Mike and I did a store date.  It was fun.  We just went to the store.


Ike was kind of done this day with online learning  He turned to me and said I gotta poop.  I told him he had to wait until class was done.  He is so funny.  For the most part he loves it and is learning a lot.  His teacher is great and has a good rhythm going.  Some days are just hard.


We had one nice day, so we went outside.


We roasted hotdogs,  and made fire with a bunch of paper so it would start.




We cut up a bunch or wood for outdoor blocks.


We played with chickens.



Looked for balls on the roof.  Spoiler alert it was on the ground.




Went for another big hike.


It was a good nice day,  I hope we have some more so we can continue to be outside.

Mike and I went on a shopping date.  This last lockdown has been so intense and isolating because it has been so cold and it is unpleasant to go outside.  I am going a little squirrely.  I did find these cute sunglasses in hopes for sunnier days to come.

It is so cold the little pond by our house froze solid.   There were a bunch of people out ice skating.



We took our sled out.


Valentines plant for Frau Hess.  We just love her.


Our fancy valentine dinner.

I was able to find a few cards from the goodie store to give out this year.  It is the gift that keeps on giving.

We went to this tiny waterfall in bruchmühlbach-miesau.  





It was small but since it turned to ice it was so cool.









Ike and I made some outdoor blocks to play with.  They have been so much fun.  Well I have fun. I don't know if the kids love it as much as I do.



Fun and games.

We did an experiment with water tension.

Chloe is 13!  13 people.  I cannot believe what an amazing wonderful young woman she is.  She is a light to this world.  I am so thankful to have her in my life.  She is my Schatz!


Because of covid she had a birthday day with each friend.  You can only have one person from another household over right now.  BOO.


But they had fun.

It warmed up enough for a bikeride and we took advantage.


It was still a little frosty but oh so fun.

My birthday present came from my Mom.  It is so squishy.  

Chloes birthday present from Grandma.  She loves all the details.

Ikes bruse.  His poor face.  He fell off the hover board.

Next birthday day.


Next birthday day.  And they matched.


Outdoor Koob.  I am so happy it has warmed up the tinniest bit.
