Escape rooms and backyard adventure…

"Wheee!"
-James

We took the kids to an escape room to do something new and interesting around Ashlyn’s birthday.  It was a lot of fun and we were able to solve the puzzles and escape the rooms in under 45 minutes.  The kids already want to go again.

James and Ashlyn have transitioned back to in-person school due to the difficulties of learning remotely in Spanish Immersion.  It’s much quieter around the house, but Ashlyn and the kittens have quickly adjusted to the new situation.  Isla still enjoys learning and I can often hear her happily following along with the teacher from her room.

When we don’t see the children for awhile, it rarely means something good is happening.  When we don’t see the kids for awhile and notice that cabinets in the garage are open, we get a little nervous.  An example of this occurred this week when we went outside to find the kids had created a zip line in the backyard and were using a kitchen towel to fly down it.  Luckily no kids were hurt.  I wish I could say the same for the towel.
