I took the kiddos to the skate park to have some fun this sunny Saturday.

Twin Lakes State Park Trip
We took a trip to Twin Lakes State Park to get a break from our routine and spend some time in the woods. We had a lot of fun hiking and relaxing around the cabin.
Halloween
This year we decided that we could safely trick-or-treat with masks and candy quarantine. I bought candy early in the week and that’s what we all feasted on when we got home (the gathered candy is still in lockdown for 5 days). We carved our pumpkins, and I made a very timely design for mine (he’s happy because he doesn’t have coronavirus). Then we had a Nerf war in the yard because AJ decided to buy us all guns. After dressing up, we spent the entire allotted time trick-or-treating under the blue moon. The kids had a great time!
Sunday Paper and Family Hike
Today we started off by reading the New York Times. Brooke found the crossword and not knowing how to do it, filled it in with numbers (so cute). There’s a kids section with easy, medium, and hard kids crossword puzzles, and after learning how to do them, she completed the first two (with help). Afterward, we hiked the back trails of Oak Grove Lake as a family. Such a lovely Sunday morning!
Brooke’s Seasaw Catapult
Brooke needed to create something using simple machines for school. She and AJ built what she calls a catapult to move Monkey from one area to another. Really, I should let her explain . . .
