It’s not the ideal band banquet, but I’ve cert

It’s not the ideal band banquet, but I’ve certainly enjoyed the giggles coming from one end of the kitchen counter. 🎶 This just about wraps up my little trumpeter’s freshman year. 🎺 So very grateful for all the kids in Rolesville band. 🎶 I’m case you didn’t know, the Rolesville band is what made us decide where to move in Raleigh. I am really grateful for this special group of young people and their director. ❤️🖤❤️ Is everyone else just about done with high school? 🎶 🎶 🎶 #zoommeeting #bandbanquet #coviddiaries #ramfam #rolesvillenc #rolesvillehighschool #wcpss #highschoolband #trumpeters #bestfriends #endoftheyear #sayinggoodbye #seniors2020 #shelovesthesepeople #thanksall #bandbudsforlife #bandbuds #rolesvillerams #rhsband #schoolsoutforsummer #awardsnight #wishitwerelive #socialdistancing #thatsmile #thatsmile😍 #bffs❤️

Tonight’s family fun... . . We did a flavor taste test of @milkisusa. This Korean drink is a milk and yogurt based carbonated beverage. It sounds gross, but it’s actually quite refreshing. . . Ellie first tried it because it came in a snack box she got for Christmas. Then we saw all these flavors at @krogerco ! Fun times. . . The flavors we tried were original, strawberry, apple and melon. Which do you think you’d like best? . . #nomnombox #koreansnacks #koreansnackbox #milkis #tastetest #familynight #familyfuntonight #coviddiaries #carbonateddrink #kroger #groceryshoppingfun #groceryshoppingwithkids #treats #sundayfunday😎 #sundayfunday❤️ #midlifeblogger #lifewithteens #sheloveskoreanstuff #koreanfood #koreanstuff #kpopfan #familybondingtime #makeitfun #momofteens #lifewithteens #teenstyle #coolkidsclub #50pluslife #curatingthegoodlife #over50style #ourlifeourway

So, I’ve been thinkin’... . . Since the gyms (most places) are still closed, how about y’all come visit me and we can work out in my yard? . . Fresh air, appropriate social distancing, a great workout and some friendship time! . . Guaranteed to work your muscles and rev that heart rate! And, I won’t even charge a gym membership fee! . .
