Probably around 20 cars filled with all of the Edison teachers in lieu of the planned Edison Open House. Jess teared up again.

Madd Max Shops In The Time Of Corona
The wait outside of Trader Joe's where there were a range of outfits - from gas mask and hoodie.
To cheetah face mask and belly shirts, complete with multiple selfies while on line.

And barren streets.

Madd Max Have A Social Friday Night
Madd zooming with Ellie and Elizabeth for an Art Night.
Max zooming with Imani for some game play.
Sam and Jess zooming with Kears and Todd for some convo.
Madd Max Hits Up In-n-Out
For the first time in 6 weeks, Jess decided after a long week of distance learning, a treat was in order.
Max almost screamed when he saw it, and Maddie drank her half of the shake down so fast that it ran out the sides of her mouth.

Madd Max Has Just Another Day In Quarantine
First this zoom, which was a virtual walk thru of an animal sanctuary.
The main attraction.
Then an Art Dept zoom.
And some of this.
Caused by math like this.

Madd Max Has Clarity
In 20 years, the mountains have never been so visible. It's like after a rainstorm, but all the time.

The Scrapper Has Activities
Connect 4 with Isse and Audrey.
Followed by a little story time.
And a drive by birthday song for Mia.
The evening ending with a surprise from Morgan for more baking fun - this cookbook and dope apron.
The Scrapper Has PE
He has chosen the water rower as his exercise of choice as it means he can stay in his pajamas. 3000m a session.

Madd Max Gets Macaron Deliveries
The first were lemon, made with homemade lemon curd.
Today's delivery from Brian and Andrew was raspberry.
Slappy Has A Daily Challenge
As part of her schoolwork, Maddie needs to create a daily 15 minute challenge for herself. Today she decided to try to teach her brother to play parts of "The Hanging Tree" on the piano.

Madd Max Wishes Great Aunt Lu A Happy Birthday
On a full family zoom call. One of the highlights of the call besides seeing all the fam: to get better internet, Great Aunt Lu and Great Uncle Jeff had moved to the stairway of their home. Upon their return to light candles on the cake, they found that in fact, there was no longer any cake as their dog, Pippa, had taken advantage of their leave and enjoyed it all for herself.

Madd Max Takes Night Walks
Jess has been taking walks at night to get some exercise and tire herself out before bed. It's calming and strange.
Along the way, people have been leaving out the excess fruit from their trees. This house provided bags to carry the kumquats in. Sam later turned them into a delicious cocktail.

Madd Max Has A Happy Easter
Baskets from the bunny.
Peep waffle.
The scavenger hunt got even harder this year, this time taking the kids about 40 minutes to complete.
The actual answer to the clue was binoculars - not Jess' glasses.
Max has a love/hate relationship with every clue. He enjoys the hunt, but gets frustrated quickly if it gets challenging. It has been this way always.
Followed by, the backyard Easter Egg Hunt. Normally, the Findley Egg Hunt follows, but this time the kids stayed in pajamas all day and we all just talked about missing it.
Even The Countess got in on things.
Hunting in the time of Corona.
Taisie watched from an appropriate social distance.
Wrapping up with the stuffing the mouth and sorting of the candy.

The birthday girl and fam!
Marissa had a surprise line up of cars that stretched up and down their block for the birthday girl.
Happy 14! You are awesome.
