Family BBQ Night

Family BBQ Night

Each week during isolation we are trying to support a different local restaurant. This week we decided upon Chub’s Blue Pig BBQ. We’ve been fans of this BBQ joint for a long time. They run a small place and do a lot of take out. They have short runs of food and often sell out. They do a great job working with their social media to get the word out about all of their specials and when they run out of things. I saw that they were doing car-side service. You place your orders online and pay online and they will put your order in your car so there would be no contact. I pulled up, gave a call and popped my trunk. Jessica came out and put the food in the trunk. We waved and smiled. All good.

Picking up BBQ

After dinner we did FaceTime with Mimi and Dano. The kids called to thank them for a special delivery that arrived today, a basketball hoop. I had planned to bring the kids to a park to play, but that hasn’t happened. Instead Andy took a wire tomato cage and stuck it in the ground. The kids were using that to shoot their basketball. That wasn’t going to do. So, tomorrow we’re going to put that together and the kids will be playing soon enough in the backyard.

Thank you to all the Delivery Drivers

Thank You Door

Allison and Andy painted a big “Thank You” on our back door for all the delivery drivers that come by the house on a daily basis. Between the toy deliveries and Amazon orders, plus Munroe Dairy we get people coming and going. So, in order to put a smile on faces Allison thought of this and employed Andy to help out. Andy was thrilled beyond anything to be able to use actual (water based) paint on the windows. Later when a delivery driver came by it gave him a smile.

We had a nice day at BenSpark Family Day School (sort of what we’re calling this Homeschooling venture). The kids are doing very well in their studies and got their report cards last night. They did such great jobs.

We continue to do home workouts for karate and Krav Maga and record them for the school. It is a new normal but it is going pretty well. I hope that everyone reading this is doing well, too.
