Zooming All the Time

Well...it was good while it lasted.  In-person learning happened for 10 weeks, but with Covid cases rising and teachers being quarantined, we are back to ZOOM ROOMS.  Today was our second first day of school and we are ready!  All our learning spaces are set and our supplies are ready.  Allie is all set up in the basement, Ayden in the office, and I am in our guest bedroom teaching iCenter and reading groups.  We can do this!!

Back Tuck!

This has been a skill Allie has been working on for almost TWO YEARS!  Her new year's wish balloon in 2019 was to get her back tuck. Although she didn't accomplish this in 2019...she kept working hard and GOT THAT TUCK!  I foresee many new skills in the near future that involve that tuck!

Halloween

This little girl is as colorful as the rainbow she dressed up as this Halloween.  Allie thought of and designed her own costume this year...with a little help from mom to make it a reality.  

   

Ayden came up with Mac and Cheese this Halloween...so we had to get a little creative...and we had to start save paper towel tubes!  This is the cutest little noodle I've ever seen!  Say CHEESE!

  

We made the best of the Halloween season by enjoying the skeletons in downtown Northville with Nana.  We always love seeing our old favorites and the new ones they come up with...Back to the Future was an awesome addition this year.

Halloween wasn't just for the kids!  Thankful for friends to have some spooky good times with over candy corn and pumpkin fluff.

  

 

 

Halloween parties were not the same...but for the first time in a LONG time, the kiddos at the G were allowed to wear their costume to school!  

Pumpkin Picking

Signing Day at Motor City

It's official!  Allie is a MOTOR CITY Ruby and Topaz this year!  I'm so proud of her for taking this change so positively.  She's looking forward to achieving her back tuck and competing on a YOUTH team for the first time!

  

Mini-Model

Allie played model for a morning in Ann Arbor for a friends awesome new activewear brand.  She had a blast having her photo taken and trying on all the clothing...especially the crop tops!

Fall Ball

Fall Ball may not have been as sophisticated as in the spring...but it sure was fun being the star of the team.  Ayden looked like a pro being batter #1.  He usually got the team off to the right start with a hit and sometimes a run.  Although the team did not win not even a single game...Ayden impressed us all with his baseball skills.
