Breakfast for me and my parents:

I promised kids I would make French toasts for breakfast this morning, so here it is. They’ve been complaining about having to drink green smoothies with their breakfast every morning so this is a special treat. 😉 And when I say kids, that also means my husband included.

Vietnamese chicken with rice for dinner. 

Chloe working on her TED Talk for language art class.

Enjoying physical activities at the park. We’ve been coming here every evening to get some exercise but we learned that as of tomorrow morning, this park will also be closing. 🙁

These kids never run out of energy, They are wrestling after dinner.

Putting their energy to good use…

I sat down with Shane for a good couple of hours this morning, reading through his social studies and language arts class works. I left him on his own yesterday to go through his first day and checking his work this morning, I was not convinced he was doing everything he was supposed to do. He did…but not to my likings.

I know this girl is on top of her studies… you are, right?

She just told me to go away…

The world has gone mad and we with it. COVID-19 virus started spreading throughout the world and it is now so close to home. We had a livestream Sunday service, Andrew started working from home, and kids schools have closed as of last Friday 3/13. We began our virtual learning today.
I’ve been sick with sinus infection + bronchitis (my doctor said I don’t have coronavirus) so I missed out on stocking up on groceries last week like the rest of the world, so after making breakfast, helping kids all setup with school materials, I tackled grocery shopping. It wasn’t as bad as I expected. I was scared there might be lines outside even to get into a supermarket, but I guess I went early enough before getting too crowded. This whole thing feels like a bad dream. We’ve never experienced anything like this in our lifetime and just reminded me how small we humans are… I’m just so thankful my family are all here with me, including my parents.

After finishing her school work, Chloe spent a few hours cleaning and organizing her room.

Chloe and I have been going to a park for last few days so she can skateboard and I can walk/run while keeping our distance from people. Shane shoots around basketball in the driveway throughout the day. After dinner, we watched a movie together just like past few nights. It’s was a simple but also a very busy 1st day of quarantining…

So happy to see these gals and even though we don’t get to see each other often, the love is always there. We chatted about everything…it’s like we were never apart. And I found out SJ is pregnant with twin girls! So So happy for my friend and I can’t wait to meet them this summer!

I make a mean avocado smoked salmon on toasted everything bagel.

What a wonderful time we had tonight with some of my GRC family! I love when our conversations are intentional and Christ centered. Loved and enjoy every minute of their presence at our home. 🙂

Dinner tonight @Choux Gras Brasserie Culinaire, where kids tried foie gras for the first time and loved it.

Today we decided to take a break from being on the mountain, (Because the forecast says it’s -20?) and explore this charming picturesque pedestrian village. We rode the standing gondola from the town to enjoy the view from high up.

“Coco Pazzo, the best Italian restaurant in Mont-Tremblant.” I have to agree.
