 It was another beautiful morning! Mama got to drink her coffee and read her book on the screened in porch while we did our work inside.

And today was my very first drum lesson with Mr. Varrone, the band teacher. It was fun to see him on Zoom and learn some new snare drumming techniques! I'm excited to take drum lessons!

And I got all of my work done today. I love seeing my friends and Mrs. Birk online!

Then it was time for an after school hot tub dip! Gotta love hot tubbing whenever we want to!

And then we had Happy Hour on the back porch waiting on the sun set! It was a beautiful, warm, sunny afternoon!

For dinner we decided to eat on the screened in porch. Pork Chops, yay!

 That stinky drive last night was worth waking up to a beautiful sunrise in Duck!

And Mama got to enjoy her coffee on the deck!

Last night Dady and Mama got us all set up with our computers and printer and school supplies and when we woke up this morning we could get right to work! Our set up's were great and we all got to have school with a view!

Then we went out to touch the pool water. Brrrr it was freezing! It was also 8:30am!

And during our morning break we took a little dip in the hot tub! We could get used to this distanced learning!!

This sure is a good way to do school! A little work, a little sun, some hot tub and the sounds of the ocean waves as we work!

Even Mama got a little reading done on the crow's nest! It was a beautiful day out!

And when school let out we headed straight for the beach! Not a cloud in the sky and the breeze was still warm and the sun kept us toasty!

The tide was up pretty high and the waves were crazy but it made the sand nice and flat so we could go for a long walk on the beach!

The water was pretty chilly but we still went mostly in because we're crazy boys!

We saw surfers and ghost crabs and pipers and families hanging out and fishing!

It was a great first day in Duck. When we came off the beach we went straight into the hot tub. Then in the house for homework and dinner. Thanks MeMa and PopPop for letting us enjoy Summer Song!

Today we got up, had a good breakfast and then Daddy worked to get us all packed up and ready to hit the road to Duck around noon! It wasn't the easiest ride we've had here...

We hit traffic and detours at every turn. It made for a little bit of a frustrating ride. But we hunkered down, entertained ourselves, slept and we made it!!

                                  Untitled

We were so happy to get here! And we had a yummy pizza dinner to celebrate! Hooray for the beach. Hooray for Summer Song!

Yesterday Mama got a delivery and it came with dry ice!! Daddy showed us how cool it looks when you pour hot water over it! 

                                   Untitled

Mama marinated a big old pork shoulder over night with lots of yummy smelling stuff!

                                   Untitled

Then it was time to take down the flower boxes. We were sad but it's time to decorate for Halloween and the flowers just don't fit into the decor. And they're dying so it's time to go...

                                 Untitled

It sure does make us feel very exposed on the front porch now! Especially because Daddy and Mama also cut back the red bud tree in front of the porch!

Untitled

I got to hang out and chat with my distance learning friends on the computer today b/c Mrs. Calice was having technical difficulties. It was so much fun! Mama's gonna arrange for us to have lunch together online next week and I can't wait!

                                 Untitled

The pork shoulder came out SO YUMMY! We dug in and it did not disappoint!

Later Mama hosted her socially distanced book club meeting in our driveway. It was a little rainy so Daddy and Mama set up the canopies. One for snacks and drinks and one to sit under. Everything looked so yummy. I think it was a success!

                                 Untitled

Then I tried on Daddy's glasses! They're funny!
