Like parents across the nation we struggled with creating a COVID safe Halloween for our kids. Our solution was an outdoor party with our pod. The kids hunted for candy, held a costume show, decorated pumpkins and played beautifully together. Hosting and attending a party felt like such a luxury, it was great!
To escape the cooped up COVID feeling, we went on a weekend trip to Clear Lake. The air was crisp, the scenery was stunning, and there were so many birds – herons, egrets, osprey and bald eagles! Our afternoon was spent on horseback, learning how to ride in an arena then going on a trail ride. The kids were naturals and we all enjoyed the animals and scenery.
