Spring and Exploravision!

As the weather gets better, we've been doing more bike rides, soccer games, smelling the flowers, and chasing the bunnies. Julia also won a prestigious science competition called Exploravision. She and Jacob Park did a project on innovations in water filtration. In a normal year, they would have gotten a free trip to DC to meet Bill Nye the Science Guy but this year it was on zoom. Way to go, Julia! Mom and Alex spent the first day of spring break at Crystal on a blue bell ski day. It was magnificent. The rest of spring break, we did all of our doctor/dentist/optometrist/car/etc appointments, Julia had a soccer tournament where they qualified for the semi-finals, and Mom bought a new car (Toyota RAV-4 Hybrid XSE). Julia also took an online baking course led by Christina Tosi where she learned about the innovation process and did units on cookies, pies, and cakes. Yum. Mom finished 5-0 in 40+ 5.0 tennis league (1 singles, 4 doubles) and we think we'll go to Sectionals. John and Joanna got the first Moderna COVID vaccine shot 4/17 and are scheduled for the 2nd 5/17!
