Staycation in July

We had planned to go to Weanatchee, Leavenworth and Cashmere for the 4th of July weekend, but with the COVID counts rising, especially in that area, and my back pain, we decided to do a staycation and do some fun things in the area instead. It was a great weekend and I’m so glad we changed plans!

We went to Sunbreak Cafe in Auburn for breakfast on Friday morning and then headed to Dash Point State Park for low tide. There were so many people there digging for clams. We have needs seen it so crowded. Of course, because the tide was so low we could be far away from people still, which was nice. We had fun exploring.

Coronavirus Week 14 (June 15 – 21)

We have finally been moved to phase 2 and we are getting out and seeing people and doing more things so I think this will be my last Coronavirus post! Hooray!

This is the last photo of the birds that I got. They have left the nest. I am so sad to see them go. What a joy it was to watch them grow!
My monthly trip to the infusion center….fun…
Ashley got some graphic novels in the mail from her teacher, Mrs. Long!
Cookie Dough from the food truck down by the lake one day 🙂 It was so good, but SO SWEET!!

Coronavirus Week 13 (June 8-14)

Last month, my friend Linda gave us a beautiful hanging flower pot. Little did she know that a bird would choose to build a nest in it and we would get to enjoying seeing 4 baby birds grow. None of us have ever seen that before and it has been so much fun to watch! They are growing so fast and the parents are going crazy bringing them food constantly. Tom has enjoyed watching it from his desk in the front room as he works!

I had surgery this week to put cement in my back and spend the weekend recovering from that. The birds are much more fun to look at though, so I’ll just post pictures of them. 🙂

The girls and I also got out to IKEA one day. It was pretty hard for me and I had to sit down while the girls finished up, but I did it and it was nice to be out of the house. It was the first store Molly, Ashley and I have been in since March. Sage has been to Fred Meyer with Tom a few times.
