From our yard

Our Royal Poinciana tree is in bloom!
Abigail decorated the sidewalk with great reminders!
We found a little bulb plant growing in our front yard.  Hadassah dug up a few, replanted in a pot, and then it grew and grew, and finally these beautiful tiny flowers opened!  After at first calling it the "Hadassah plant" we finally discovered it is an Eulophia Graminea or Chinese Crown Orchid!


And our 1 avocado continues growing!

Selah Costume Celebration

Since Selah Academy was not able to have their beautiful end of year Gala this year,
they celebrated with a Costume Celebration!  
 The girls were given flowers for their years with Selah.  Abigail's 9th and Hadassah's 6th!



And they received their costumes!



They got to see Ms. Brittany and Ms. Mackie, and even FaceTime with Ms. Grace!

We stayed to the end to help with clean up,
and Hadassah got to take home a string of balloons.  
 Abigail tried on one costume there and then at home the girls did a try on for our family!

Shavuot Beach Day


After a couple months of very little leaving the house, on Shavuot we went out to fancy lunch at Capital Grille and then to the beach (both were still maintaining social distancing requirements but had reopened in the last week!).
