Times of Coronavirus

I've been pretty behind on photos ever since coronavirus. Here's an update on what we've been up to.

A couple highlights from our winter break - tipi and Big Bend canoe trip.



Shortly after that, this quote to set the stage for coronavirus.


We immediately moved to New Paltz where the kids enjoyed our path outside.

Bryson engaged in daily projects where he would pick a topic, research it, write, do a visual project (below is the Great Pyramids), and present it at dinner.
