Visit with the Grandboys and Strawberry Cinnamon Rolls

I know it's been quiet on the blog, but life has been anything but quiet!  My two grandson's came for a visit.  They brought their parents too.  And while Fairbanks was really wet, cool and rainy the whole time they were here, we did have some moments of sun and fun in the rain.

Gman was a trooper wearing his mask to travel.

EZ loved the fresh bread I made every day.

Grandpa's sidekick!

Loving the good weather at "Summer Camp"

Then they left and I went to Montana to help my mom.  I spent a couple weeks there working remotely, helping her clean house and taking trips to the dump and the donation center.  My brother stepped in after I left and he is there now helping her.

Our usual summer plans have changed a bit due to "the COVID" as we call it at home, and things look a little different with what we are doing.  I am tired of the phrases "new normal" and "unprecedented times" because every day is a new normal.  Nothing stays the same and we just need to keep on keeping on.

So, here are a few pictures from our visit with the boys, and a few things we made special for the grandkids.  I hope to be home and back to a "normal" COVID routine soon.

Ice Cream Sandwich cake for Gman.

He loved it!

Way too soon they were headed back home.
