It should be fun!

It was! The kids stayed outside roasting hotdogs & marshmallows and playing UNO forever. They were so grateful to see each other again that there wasn't a single complaint ... but then, they had a huge fire to keep them warm and entertained. They were really smart about it. All four agreed to self-quarantine for at least a few days to make sure they weren't showing any symptoms. Smart kids! So, all went well ... now we just wait and hope it went safely, too!
