Anna working on her school project

Both kids went back to school on Tuesday, Jude with online school and Anna went in-person. Jude is back tomorrow with in-person school which he is very happy about.

Anna had to do a passion project for school which involved cooking several dishes. She baked scones, sugar cookies, gingerbread cookies, hot cocoa cupcakes and thumb print cookies. She also cooked a dinner with salmon, green beans and potatoes. She had to do a presentation to her class on her project and her teacher sent us a note afterwards telling us how great she did. She worked really hard on it so it was good to see it come together well in the end.

Jude cheering on the Cleveland Browns tonight

We didn’t do much this weekend. The weather wasn’t great, it was a cold and snowy Saturday but Jude was fine – all he wanted to do was watch football. While he didn’t watch every minute of all three games each day he did manage to catch some of every game. And it all culminated with the Cleveland Browns beating the Steelers on Sunday night. We are all Browns fans here, since Marcy spent the first eight years of her life there. We got Jude a Baker Mayfield jersey for Christmas which he proudly wore for tonight.

The kids did get outside some. They went sledding this morning with the neighbors, jumped on the trampoline with the neighbors a few times, and Jude and I went to the soccer field to play both days.
