Last Thursday, we went with one of our homeschool groups to Columbia's Marionette Theater. I have been wanting to take the girls there since we moved here. We saw "The Wizard of Oz". We loved it; we even had a backstage tour after the performance. I was in shock a bit (along with a couple of other Moms) at how small the actual marionettes were in person. They looked so large on stage!
Friday we gathered with our Book Buddies crew for "video" Buddies. Friday was the last time we were going to be able to get together this school year. And with all of our lives a little crazy lately, the decision was made to do Shaun the Sheep as the theme. They made cupcakes that looked like Shaun, and another that was a flower. Then they watched an episode, or two, of Shaun the Sheep. Then to tie it into Easter, they colored Shaun popping out of an Easter egg. Too cute!!!
For Easter we went to see my parents. Since Dad can no longer go out without a mask, we kept it simple this year staying at the house rather than going to the BIG family gathering. My Mom was kind of elusive about what we were going to eat. But when we got there we knew. Something was being smoked! Dad made St. Louis style ribs. So good!! And John and I (mostly John) repaid him by fixing his recliner.
After lunch settled, Dad took the girls outside to pot a new plant (like the one I found growing on the steps). Now, each one has there own. Fingers crossed theirs will do as well as mine is right now.
