Headache or no, life continues

While this month has not been one of great health for me, life has to continue on.  Eli and Mike decided out of the blue to take up blacksmithing.  In typical Mike style, if it has something to do with learning a skill, he will invest money in it.  He found a man in Denver who teaches blacksmithing and they go about once a week.  He also found some blacksmithing tools like a forge and an anvil and they spend about an hour a night in the garage together banging on metal.  I would probably spend that money on something like a trip to the beach but this is probably a better way for Mike to spend his time with Eli.  

The girls are continuing to take gymnastics.  They go once a week and are all split into tiny groups and have to wash hands between each station and no parents are allowed inside.  On Saturdays (just for four weeks this year) the girls are playing soccer.  We all skipped last week since we are all still sick but they have enjoyed the two weeks before and then will end this next Saturday.  Piper is so much more confident and they both love to play.  Thankfully, their coach is a woman in our ward who used to play soccer and she wanted her kids to play without having to pay a bunch of money so every spring and fall she offers to teach soccer for free.  There are only about 8-11 kids in an age group and most of the kids all come from the same family.  Felicity's age group plays at 9 and Piper's plays at 10.  

Piper learned about the Egyptians this past month so we reserved a spot at the museum and checked out their mummy exhibit.  The museum was almost empty and we enjoyed checking out a few exhibits before heading back home.
