Quarantine Diaries -- Week 2

Luckily we had spring break for our second week of quarantine and all our brains were able to take a break from everything. We started our week off with church at home and it was awesome.

 Thad gave a great talk and Eve and I enjoyed getting “fancy” during a time there isn’t much to get fancy for! We are so grateful to live in a time when church at home is no problem, both physically and doctrinally. Being able to partake of the sacrament in our home has been such a blessing. Seeing things come to pass that have been prophesied of and that we have been prepared for has been such a testimony builder. I don’t want it to stay this way for long, but am so grateful for the blessings of the gospel and the perspective it provides.

We spent time outside and the weather was all over the place! 

 Luckily we are still able to play with the Sacketts (similar quarantine situations, little exposure) but have had to call it quits with some other friends. Social distancing is hard.

Random Quarantine Moments

 •shredding newspaper ads in the mail because they are useless at this point.

•reading Harry Potter — we are going to try and read the first one as a family and then let the boys loose! 

•letting naked babies crawl on bathroom floors...I really am going crazy!
•social distancing at Costco. Brian said it was actually nice when he got in! 

•best big sis

Lots of electronics snuck in since there was no school work to get done and no place to go-

 

Just being outside was super important last week so we didn’t go crazy!

 We went on lots of walks and a couple drives just to get out of the house. It wasn’t quite the spring break we were hoping for (we’ll get to Palmyra and Niagara eventually), but counting our blessings we are able to “shelter in place” in a safe place, all together, with everything we need.

The meme game is still going really strong!
