Outdoor fun with friends

As the temperatures begin to drop, we are forced to bare the weather and stay outside to enjoy the company of friends in this crazy pandemic.  We snatched up the Haney family and went over to explore Cascade Park in Elyria.  It started to rain while we were there but there was not a big deal at all.  The Metroparks were hosting an event call the turkey scramble.  We had to follow the map and find the golden eggs with letters and then unscramble the letters.  We mixed up one letter and so we thought the mystery word was: Fitt bugs.  Once the staff from the park helped us out we figured out the word was: stuffing!  Lots of laughs were had by all!

Luckily we had our first epic snowfall which resulted in a snow day for Amherst schools. Since we are virtually learning in Vermilion until January 19th, I still had to teach until 2:30pm.  We grabbed the neighbors and headed over to Golden Acres to sled for an hour!  It was a blast!  The only downside is that we all got our cars stuck in the snow and had to take turns pushing each other out. Fun times had by all!

Amherst scheduled a power outage for two hours on a Sunday, so we loaded up the kids and drove out to Rocky River Reservation.  It was such a muddy mess but the kids had a blast.

All giggles and muddy cars! It is so great to get everyone out to have fun together safely outside!
