Isn’t this an awesome playground view?

Thanks to Lola, we still have comfortable bean bags:) Holmes pitched in as her assistant today, picking up the fly aways that didn’t want to be contained.

And it was all worth it. Holmes ended up napping on top of Lola lying on top of a bean bag. It totally merited a selfie and a nap caught on camera:)

This girl of multiple talents progressed to singing Christmas songs while strumming the ukulele - adding mic support and a hype woman too! (Thanks for the microphone, Lucy!)

In the school bus I didn’t think we needed anymore…but when the unseen is seen, we must feed the need.

Remembering Lolo on his birthday and eating Chinese takeout from his favorite restaurant, Tai Tung:)

Forget spandex, stretch out with even more stretch!

Evening snack:) 

No more Christmas music on the radio…but as of today, the Friday song is back! A local radio station plays “Show Me” by Mint Royale at a random moment during the Friday morning show, and it played on our way to school! Chair dancing happiness!

We gained a swimming pool in our back yard this afternoon! Not good. It rained so much, so quickly, that the water ran into our basement egress window and…well, we thanked our basement rug for soaking up the water and took it to the transfer station. But, not before Frank and I literally moved water outside - sweeping it away from the house, scooping it into buckets, and pouring it down the street drains. So many gallons of water. And, workout for the day complete!

We needed a snack. Cookies and jalapeño chips to be exact. They fed our souls. The kids thrived through a week of school, and Frank and I survived the afternoon:)

We watched Encanto for the first time tonight. It’s already my favorite and I want to watch it again, and again. If you haven’t already seen it, watch it.

Another chicken, another wishbone. Meryl is now on a roll, and Holmes celebrated with hops and a high five for second place:)

Reel 2 Real’s “I Like To Move It” popped into our heads…time for a dance party!

DJ Dad closed out the set with DJ Khaled’s “All I Do Is Win.” Finishing with a win!

When is the floor not lava?

We met up with a friend today to get all the wiggles out..back to school tomorrow for Meryl! Holmes strolled in to school today ready to play.
