Hello school year! Due to covid both girls started school with mandated distance learning. We were given the options of in person school and virtual school, each for the full year. We chose the in person option but are not able to go back until "our county deems it safe;" therefore, we spent the first three weeks of September at home 100% online with the girls doing Zoom for 3-4 hours a day.
The girls are doing well online but it's definitely much harder on them...the teachers....and the parents. We are all wanting them to go back in person and we're hoping that will be sooner rather than later.
We celebrated our anniversary with a family weekend getaway to Newport Beach and the girls loved the hotel life.
With my parents still in town Robert and I were able to sneak away to Las Vegas for a quick adults only vacation. It was so nice and a very much needed break after the first couple of days of homeschooling (speaking of, huge shoutout to Nana who was able to keep the girls on track and complete their distance learning while we were gone!). Vegas was a trip, very quite and dead compared to what it is usually like. We had a great time though, basically doing nothing but laying in bed, hanging at the pool and enjoying good dinners.
Mila turned 8 this month and is such a little delight. This age is so great, where she is pretty independent but still loves being with her mom and dad. I am trying to soak it all up before she hits her pre-teens! We celebrated her birthday with a water slide in the front yard, which was the perfect covid way to celebrate. She didn't want a cake but opted for Neapolitan ice cream instead.
