lately
Things have been busy around here..
About two weeks ago we celebrated the Islamic New Year. Afterwards we observed 10 days of mourning for the atrocities committed against Imam Hussain, the grandson of the Prophet in Karbala, Iraq during the month of Moharram.
It was a junior course, not too high up. The higher course you see in the picture was the adult course. We couldn't zip line because the kids didn't weigh enough. D managed it pretty well.. H had to be rescued 3/4th way in.. he was too scared and his little arms and legs just weren't long enough.

It's practically September now.. meaning school will be starting soon. For now our school district has proposed a hybrid system. You have the choice of opting for 100% virtual learning, the rest of the students have been divided into two groups. Half of them will attend school on Mondays and Tuesdays while the other half will attend school on Thursdays and Fridays.. Wednesday everyone will stay home. September will also be a month of half days just to see how things go.. We have opted to send the kids to school for two days a week. We're not sure what to expect exactly, wouldn't be surprised in the school decides to go virtual even before it starts.. or if everything shuts down again within a few weeks. And we do all have the option of switching to virtual if we don't feel comfortable with the way things progress.. so anything could happen. Just 8 more days to go.
Just before all the craziness begins we are going away for a couple of days.. we have rented a house upstate and we have been counting down the days for this getaway.. praying for good weather and lots of sun.
A little something the boys and I did
And a weekend adventure.. the Tree Top Adventure Course at Turtle Back Zoo
