More pictures and videos that didn't make their own posts...
The elementary school was on distance learning through the end of the academic year. One of the fun events in the last month is Field Day. The students get to do all sorts of outdoor activities like relay races and physical challenges. Here's a bit from our at home field day!
In more school news, my youngest's teacher had a birthday at the end of the year so they had a virtual celebration because of the distance learning protocol.
Art projects continued unabated, with this home-made hat.
The Anne Arundel library system was the first of our three local libraries to start curbside pickup of books. We requested a bunch of new stuff and went to the nearby branch to get them. Like other businesses, we had to call or text when we arrived with our card number (library card, not credit card) to have the books delivered. The staff did not put our items in our trunk--they placed them on an outside table. We had to wait till the staff member was six feet away before leaving our car to get our goodies.
We had nothing to return on this trip but will soon be swapping out what we picked up for even more new, fresh material. Three months has been a long wait to get new physical library materials.
Digging out old toys led us to playing with our Lincoln Logs!
We joined a CSA again, which means we will be getting weekly fresh vegetable in big quantities. We may have to do a lot of stir-frying over the summer!
Mass has started again at our church with reduced capacity. Father announced that they had bags, one for each family. The white lunch bags came with some useful items for home devotions.
My youngest has finished his first year of scouting. Usually the bridging ceremony is held indoors with ice cream sundaes for dessert. Our county is still in early phases of getting back to normal after the pandemic shutdown. The pack held an outdoor bridging ceremony that was very nice.
The pack also gave us a sign for the yard which we are proud to display.
