Maisy is On-Pointe!

We jumped right back into our routine. Afton is playing volleyball- she made the Freshman A- team for GHS and signed with No Limits on their 15's Black team. (No pics of any of this because #teenagers). 

Maisy missed her bunnies while we were gone and has taken to 'mothering' them again. Poor Snowball lost her baby- we are not sure what happened. Sadly we think a red tail hawk picked it up. So we are hoping for another litter in the fall. 

A Week in Vail - 2020

We escaped the heat of Texas and the reality of #thecovid for a family vacation in the mountains. Afton had volleyball until late afternoon, so once we got on the road - we only drove 5 hours to Amarillo before stopping. We had dinner downtown and then stayed up late, excited for our adventure.

Grammy Comes to Town

We haven't seen my mom in a looooong time! So happy she was able to come see us for the week. We did a lot of eating, shopping, talking and having fun. Love you Grammy! 

4th of July - Is Not Cancelled

"Things" tightened up again around the 4th of July. The relaxation of quarantine restrictions in May, plus the political and BLM riots, and general exhaustion from #thecovid led to an increase in cases. Our state put in place a mandatory mask rule and although there was no 'lockdown'- large group gatherings were banned. Our gym required masks to be worn during exercise, Maisy continues to dance in a mask, and Afton gets regular temperature checks and health questionares before any sports activity. We were nervous that more things (restaurants/gyms) might shut down again. Our neighborhood Patriotic Parade was canceled. 

SOOOOO we decided to celebrate the 4th of July at home. We spent too much money on small fireworks, ate lots of 'griddle' food, swam for 6+hours, and then sweated in the garage until we could no longer bear the heat. It was a fun day! 

Summering with the Conners

The endless summer thing is turning out to be pretty good for everyone around here. 

We go to the lake a lot. Sometimes Coco goes too.
