Starting off once again with a school selfie. Sometimes I think I do more at work than take pictures of myself, but then again maybe not?
THIS SKY THO:
Scooter ride next to the Columbia tennis courts to mess with Clyde during practice haha.
Work selfie in the reset room:
I thiiiiink this was during an evacuation drill - I cleared my area and then stopped by the orchestra room to leave Willy boy a note before his class came back inside.
Literally can't remember anything about this happy reunion...
but it was apparently important/hilarious enough to photograph. I'm guessing they had been forced apart all day by in school suspension?
Cute little bike riders:
Also there's a decent chance Jack freaking excels at school and assessments. What the heck.
Friendly reminder that Sharon McMahon is the best government teacher ever. Follow her on instagram, check out her website, pre-order her book, all the things. https://sharonmcmahon.com/
It is very interesting to me that some people hike frequently. Like once a week or possibly more often. Our family hikes once about every three years and it is a monumental undertaking and also a relatively easy, short hike in the "hiking" "world": TableRock in Boise.
These two scampered along like little mountain goats:
Will jogged when informed a spot to sit was just around the bend.
Sibling support:
Will celebrated by promptly reading all the informational guide signs.
Oh sheesh:
Carma's face:
Quick family picture:
We made it! Will wants to go again next week?!
Instagram caption: One time almost exactly three years ago we hiked Table Rock as a family, so obviously it was time to head up there again. These are all at the top, but don’t worry: I made sure to take tons of pictures on the way up and down so people would see that I was doing it for the ‘gram and not mistake me for an actual, legit hiker. 💁🏻♀️🤳🏻💅🏼
Also Will and I counted TWENTY SEVEN different dogs along the way and that brought us so much joy that we resolved next time to discreetly photograph each dog as we count. 🐕🐩🦮🐕🦺🐶2️⃣7️⃣
Also we might try to make it there again sooner than another three years but no promises 😉🥴😅
I am an attractive swimmer:
mid-March 2020 was bonkers.
{Probably should’ve given in last March, whoops! 🥴😂😭}
Slightly intimidated by the hundreds of hours of film time in front of me BUT pretty psyched to feel less like a poser when I wear Marvel t-shirts 😎 Let’s do this 📽
Enjoy a million screenshots about me, aka an enneagram 2:
(oh, and Chuck is a 5)
Cutest kitty on a bed:
Very belated end of wrestling season banquet:
And one picture with a pretty stellar mom, aka me.
Girls night:
Came home to my girlies waiting for me in my bed haha.
One of my best party tricks at school is to steal Takis or Flamin’ Cheetos from a student and make them laugh... a lot... as I eat them and (genuinely!) freak out at how spicy they are.
Last week I tried jalapeño Cheetos and immediately regretted it. Today that student brought a separate small bag of REGULAR DELICIOUS CHEETOS for me to munch while we worked on social studies and I once again believe that the children are our future. I can overlook sketchy taste in chips by teenagers who are also this thoughtful and sweet 😭.
I wear... a lot of black:
Cute monkey in a tree!
I feel like these are free Arctic Circle sundaes? Maybe? Also hoping they shared with me?
Super proud of Jack. He put so much into being a good student and friend and classmate and I love that he's recognized for it.
Carma wrapped up her little dance classes with a 'performance' night to demonstrate what they learned, and it was adorable:
Such supportive big brothers ;).
Ballet:
More Sharon:
Instagram caption: It’s been a hot minute (aka multiple months) since we’ve been able to spend time with my dad, so a few hours yesterday at the park was perfect. Witness it take four grandkids to get him out in ‘hide and seek tag’ and then ponder that he offered me $10 if I could take a game of tennis off him. I gave up after... eight games? This guy’s a legend 🎾🎾🎾
The wee children created an obstacle course that Grandpa dutifully timed over and over for each kid:
And a couple more pictures and hugs haha:
One thing about our self-reliance youth class is we have treats and snacks every week:
Hugging cousins:
Never really done leprechaun traps and I've felt really good about that. So Carma was definitely left to her own devices for this one:
Also I got these overalls for Carma and almost died of the cuteness when she tried them on and as a VERY devout overall wearer circa 1997 I felt very close to her. Guess how many times she actually wore them? Zero. Siiiiigh.
