this weeks weather was amazing!!! we spent a lot of time outside! tuesday was at jodi's then in our backyard after school until supper/dark.
wednesday the kids and i picked up cam and chloe and drove to menomonie to the animal park. we played at the playground first then did the animal/nature walk and had a gorgeous day! we had lots of fun! chloe had a checklist of things to find from school so that was an added adventure. we drove down by the lake too. then we drove back to eau claire and stopped at another playground before dropping c&c off and heading home for lunch. during tova's nap time, trevor had his virtual class meeting at 2 then had his first club invention virtual class at 3. he loved it! we got a box shipped to our house for it and for the first class he got to take about and examine a robot dog. the class goes through all winter. after his meeting we went back outside to enjoy the weather.
friday after school drop off, tova, al and i ran to a couple of garage sales. we found some good stuff! after pickup, we were outside until supper/dark again.
saturday morning we loaded up and drove to hudson/river falls to meet shane, jodi, luke and henrik at kinnickinnic state park. we hiked almost 3 miles with them and had a picnic lunch. it was a beautiful park, but did get kind of busy towards the end. then we headed home, put tova down for a short nap, and then hung out at home the rest of the night.
sunday morning, mom came down for the day. after she came down, we loaded up, met matt, jodi & the kids, and had our first geocaching adventure along with a playground stop. the kids loved finding the geocaches and treasures. after lunch at home and nap for tova (and carsyn) mom headed home and we met up with them again to go to beaver creek to hike and play. we hiked until almost dark and it was a fun adventure! we even saw a wild porcupine and got to see him climb a tree! we also saw a bunch of deer. the kids loved the play area and music area.
monday was back to work for Al and me and school for trev. the day was still warm but we did get a big wind and rain by night which cooled it off and we're losing our 70 degree days going forward.
