Day at the farm, etc during the pandemic

After we had been isolated for two weeks, we did finally make a trip out to the farm for some fresh air and room to roam.  BB and Poppy had also not left their homes for two weeks so we felt that the odds of any of us having it were almost none.  It was so nice to be together in the beautiful weather.  

 

 

Anastasia got some good snuggles in with BB-

 

While Annie took a nap, the older children fished!

 

 

Such a great day to break up the monotony of being home all the time.  Thank you BB and Poppy!

We have a climber.  :)  I was taking supper dishes to the sink and found this little baby on the table.  Thank goodness we had blown the candle out!

Charlie has become Anastaia's main playmate.  He is still very happy to sit on the floor and play with her.

 We have computers going on all over the house now.  Of course, Daddy is always working on one.  Marc and Julia take their co-op classes on computers.  The three boys all have choir practice online.  Tucker takes trumpet online; Julia take clarinet online.   Tucker takes Latin online, Marc takes Logic 2 online.  The world keeps moving.

  Annie is starting to associate after-dinner walks with a popsicle.  Just like all her siblings did.

 
We eat at home ever single meal now.  Usually in the dining room.  I think the children will remember this time as the time "we quit going out to eat."  :)

We love our trampoline and always use it- almost every day.  In fact, this is our 3rd trampoline- we have replaced them over the years.    This last one can hold up to 800 lbs (we wanted our teenagers to jump with their friends).  It also serves as a nice zip-up playground for Annie Rosie.  I zip her up while I work in the yard.

 

We always put Annie in the side yard, the tot lot.  She didn't know much about the backyard.  We have an amazing tree house that was here when we moved in.  Our children have never played with it that much, but I've always been hesitant to tear it down because it is so nice.  Anastasia finally found it the other day and LOVES it!  These are the little flowers in the cottage window box.  

 When she saw the door she said, "It's Annie's house!  It's Annie's door!  Hooray!"  She knows all small things are hers.  :)

 
We will have to get it fixed back up.  One more baby to enjoy it!
