Lockdown 2021: Week 6

8th - 14th February 2021

Happy Valentine's Day!

We made each other handmade gifts and cards, took some stuff to the recycling centre which was the furthest from home we've all been in a long time, even if it's just about 15 minutes from our house, and tried to bake Valentine's cookies which didn't turn out as expected but still tasted good.

It's half term holiday this upcoming week, so no school work and no school Teams calls. It's also a year ago that we last went to Germany, the last time we saw family and it was on the way back from that trip that we heard about Covid spreading through Italy.

It's been a pretty cold week, temperatures generally between -3C and 1C all day, all week. This coming week looks like we'll be back to milder temperatures and rain.

Messy art was part of this week's school work.

Isabella has started carrying Tabby around like this.
Luckily he doesn't seem to mind it too much and just hangs until they reach their destination!

We baked bread. Three loaves in three days and made one of them part of school work too!
There's a video on that too on Isabella's Theatre.

And we had lots of snow flurries. At one time we had these picture perfect snowflakes!
