On May 4th, we had a family Star Wars day. It was really fun. We all wore Star Wars T-shirts, even Jules.
Mira and Cecily and I painted our nails.
Mira got BB8 hair.
Cecily got "Darth Vader" hair.
And wore her Star Wars necklace from Nana.
Cecily begged for galaxy donuts, so we tried. They were tasty, but not pretty. :)
Another family activity we did was a taste test. We got 4 large pepperoni pizzas from local pizza places we hadn't tried before and 5 different flavors of "cream" soda. We gave a rating from 1-5 stars for each.
Not surprisingly, the most expensive pizza was the favorite by far. And the least expensive ones were so gross that we will probably never eat them again.
Mother's day happened. It wasn't a great day. We got a good picture of me and the girls though. They sure are gorgeous. Steve was a good husband. It was mostly the kids that were terrible that day.
Jules found a container of sprinkles one morning and it was adorable to watch her try to eat them.
Last weekend, the Coombs family came to visit us. They stayed Friday night to Monday morning and it was amazing to have other people to interact with. The dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point just reopened so we all went and enjoyed the outing social-distancing style.
The kids played all weekend and we played a lot of games, including Drawful. This is all of us gathered to play that.
One night Steve, Joe, and I were playing Castles of Burgundy and we rolled doubles like 16 times. Three times all three of us rolled doubles at the same time. It was crazy.
Yesterday was Cecily's birthday and we decided to go to Thanksgiving Point gardens to feed the fish, see the flowers, and do another photo scavenger hunt.
After the Gardens, we went out for lunch, went home and bought Minecraft for Cecily (which we are already regretting), relaxed for a few hours, and then went out for ice cream and french fries. Yes, ice cream from Farr's Fresh and French fries from 5 Guys was our dinner. It was a lovely day.
We have some family visits planned over the next month and we are super excited to get out of the house and to host and see people who aren't ourselves. I hope everyone who I don't get to see is doing well, too! Love you all.
