Life in quarantine 3/15 to 3/30/20

Our quarantine in photo form! 

The boys were bored enough and allowed to spray paint their bikes. Then, Ethan's broke and Triston's is now having issues, so they rode them for a few days and now they need some doctoring! 



The girls spend a lot of time looking like this....we encourage and they have chores, but until home work started the end of March, there was a great deal of screen time and book reading. Triston was willing to try a puzzle and everyone loves listening to music. 



Every day we make sure we go on a walk. It's usually the same route, but we are enjoying seeing people or dogs or each other and having fun outside. 


This mom made us clean up trash in the ditch! We gathered three full bags of trash and then walked up to Infuzed for a soda. It was work, but the reward was worth it. 




You can often find me on the couch, and the dog is almost always nearby. 
Silly puppy decided to nap on my head 


More sitting around and watching a movie or on phones. Sorry, but there was literally not more we could do other than go on walks and at first, we were doing that twice a day!


Our family has gotten stronger from being together. Can't you tell?!!!!


My schedule...it usually barely fits on the chalkboard! So sad. 


Grandma Kathy gave us some fleece a while ago. I decided to pull it out for something to do and the big kids all made blankets! We took them to Foster Source who then gave them to foster kids for Easter. So grateful we had the material and opportunity. 




More walk/bike adventures. Look at that hottie!


Before the stay at home order came around, we let the boys go play a game with friends at the school. They couldn't touch each other and had to use their own basketballs. It was fun for them to get out. If they missed a shot, they had to do a dare. Alex and Triston had silly string sprayed at them. 




Soccer has been something truly missed. But a mom on Alex's team created a zoom account and now the entire club is doing workouts online, twice a week, as a team. I love it. They don't love it as much as being on the fields, but it's the only thing we can do right now, so we will take it. 

Ethan and Travis made a fire pit for when Ethan is stuck in the mountains without...i don't know what. Pretty impressive tho. And, it worked! The marshmallows cooked in 30 seconds or less. 




Alex zooming with Brennar. Makes me happy


Fresh, clean towels? Sure I'll make myself comfy. 


Since we are "remote learning" from home, we don't have enough electronics. Hence, the boys got their middle school chrome books a little earlier than expected.  Such excitement for the little things.



Yes, Ethan, Alex and I did some nail painting. I left mine on, they quickly removed their nail polish! again, something to do!


When I have a patient, I have to stop for a soda. It brings me such joy!


Since Maria can't come clean our house, we have to do it ourselves. Since I sweat a lot, I looked like this while cleaning! But, our family cleaned our entire house from top to bottom and everything in between in 45 minutes. Pretty talented if you ask me. 


Social distance boys! Running into friends on our walks is a hazard we are going to have to deal with and since no one is sick, it's all good in the hood. We love the Foran's. 


Every Sunday, this "bunch" meets together for an update on ward needs. Love these people and I love the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 


Related? um, yes. 


He had to fall asleep touching me, so I clearly couldn't move. Love this baby of mine. 


Some favorites!
