My buddies. 💙💙💙 They were bored enough to lay in the grass with me and my teenager even voluntarily took a selfie of us. Times are definitely weird. 😁

Happy Home-Church Sabbath day from the Criddle crew. 🙏🏽❤️ I told them we needed to document this because all this Covid-19 stuff will be over someday and we’ll look back with some level of fondness for this time together. Today we are fasting and praying as a family for the healing of the world and the damage caused by this virus. Healing physically, mentally, economically, emotionally. Please know that we are praying for peace and health for all of you and yours. ❤️

Thirteen years ago, I dropped him off for his first day of law school at the University of Washington in Seattle. It’s been a long thirteen year road but he did it...WE DID IT! 😭 Kevin is officially the newest Corporate and Securities Partner at his law firm, DLA Piper. He started with them as a Summer Associate back in 2009 and has put literally blood, sweat and tears into this achievement (okay maybe not blood and maybe not HIS tears but definitely mine😁). The path to big law partnership has been grueling at times, so it feels incredible to reach this wonderful milestone. When we got the announcement, we had a big family hug and I’ll never forget the celebrating and excitement from the boys. They feel achievement too. We are feeling very grateful and excited for his future at DLA.

Anyone who knows Blake, knows that he’s not a fan of clothes. (I mean, is anyone? 😁) He just likes to hang out in his undies and he’s seven so why not? 😏 He’s all about this quarantine life because there’s no reason to get fully dressed day after day. 🤣 Oh and croquet for the win! (Thanks #amazon). It killed a couple hours and I beat them both. 💪🏽😆

Happy 16th Anniversary to us! 💖 There is nobody I’d rather be quarantined with! 😆😷 So many sweet memories with my favorite. He’s the best friend, husband and father I could have ever hoped for. To know him is to love him. He literally charmed me the first 5 minutes of meeting him back in 2002. 💞 I frequently wonder what I did to deserve such a gem of a human being. 🥰💎 Grateful for my 19 year old self that chose you, and thank you for choosing me every single day, Kevin Criddle.

I was hiding from the laptop camera when I took this pic but wanted to share an awesome resource I found. Outschool.com has tons of live online classes (either one time classes or continuing ones) and it’s pretty awesome! Ryan is doing a series of Famous Historical People The World Forgot About, Intro to Neuroscience, and Beginner Conversational Spanish. Cade is taking a Science of Airplanes and Flight and Architecture of the World with Legos. Blake is doing Learn Colors in Espanol and All About Animal Brains. So grateful I stumbled across this! All the kids we meet are there because of school shut downs. I love it because they get to interact with kids from all over the nation, learn live about the things they are interested in, and it helps teachers make some money. (A couple of Ryan’s teachers on there are even PhDs!) Each class is between 30-60 minutes long and cost between $5-25ish, depending on the class or series. The classes are categorized by recommended ages. There are many free classes too because of Covid-19. Stay healthy and home friends! ☺️
