WHAT?

 Has it really been almost two years since I wrote in here? Covid put a big fat wrench in time.  During Spring Break, 2020 Covid surged and schools shut down. Life was changed. We didn't have school for weeks. Then the school put together whatever they could to finish the year. There was a lot of staying home, and a lot of deep breathing. When school started again, you all started online. It was interesting. We had all 9 kids trying to do school on the same internet and in all corners of the house. I had to be creative some days and use different seats..yoga balls, rocking chairs, whatever I could find. It didnt work long. You both did well though, including doing pe in our dining area and hallways. :O) (Ryder did Choir in the toy room) haha. 2020 Finished in a blur. We sold our house and moved to a rental. That was a crammed few months. We moved back over to the Linton's in January of 2021.  In February you were both Baptized. It was a beautiful service. We even were allowed to zoom it, so that was good. We had your first birthday party with friends also. It was fun. In March, We went to the Outer Banks for Spring Break and met up with our friends from New York and Angie and her friends. We had a good time. The year has zoomed by. You are both in Mrs. Hammond's class this year and love it. She is a great teacher. Here we are almost to Christmas, and the end of the year again. Juliet you are flipping cartwheels everywhere and want to be in gynnmastics so bad. Jace played tackle football and really enjoyed it. We had Mike and Christine living in our neighborhood April to August, then he had to go back to Washington, and Angie moved here and stayed. It has been fun to have them near. 

I will try harder to keep up. I am sad I missed so much. You two are growing super fast.
