David said that one of the best things when he was at RMS were the soups for hot lunch! I can only hope my homemade French onion is as good! I even offered free delivery. 😆

First XC meet today. 🏃🏻

He finished with a time of 26:45. He said it was hard and hilly, but he did better than his Dad did in his first XC race, so he was happy! 😂 And now he has his time to beat.

Shaun's first XC meet! 🏃 I can't wait to get his official time. His goal for the season is to improve his time from this race to his last race!

We're officially done with orchestra in this family.  Evan has joined his brothers with wanting to be in the band.  He's going to be learning percussion and was so excited when his music teacher told him his bell kit was ready for pick up!

It's nice to have a friend in the hood to take a quick screen free motor break before getting back online for the rest of the day. 🚴😊

Proud of this one today! He ran the hood loop alone for the first time. Big brothers are doing XC and run every day after school with their teams, so Evan is on his own. He has gym for his special every day and so this morning we made him a playlist on his iPod, he checked in with his teacher and then he was off! He did great and loved being able to listen to some tunes! With all the sitting and screens it's more important than ever to keep them active!! 🏃

First XC practice for Shaun.  With school being remote and no theater to participate in, he's trying something new to stay connected to friends.

I did a thing today. 🚴‍♀️ 16 miles. In hilly Hopkinton. Exhausted and sore but feeling proud. 💪🏻That is double the distance of my longest ride. Also Charlie does that distance on foot. 🏃 I can't even. 😂 @ Elm Brook Recreation Area

First Day of School:

The One Where We Were Remote!

CHS - RMS - BGS!

Remote Learning Day 1 in the books! On to day 2.

Nasty and ready to vote! Also, as we wrap up the first remote school day...the arrival of my newest mask was timely. #civicduty

Support local businesses that support their community! 🍦🥰💞

After a rough start for Shaun (not being able to log on to his Social Studies class this morning), and some connection issues for David and Evan (they both got kicked out of their zooms early on and had to log back in...), we all survived and it could have been a lot worse! My boys have amazing teachers and I think we're going to be OK! One day at a time! 😊

These boys definitely earned this sweet reward!
