Happy Holidays from the Silva Family!
This year has been relatively quiet as the pandemic has kept us close to home.
Highlights from Julan (11) who is the main driver of most of our activities:
- Completed 5th grade remotely and now rocking the 6th grade on site with all the book reports, math concepts, exams and student council!
- Played baseball in spring and made All-Stars, although the team did not advance past the first round.
- Was able to have a modified swim team season this summer, and will be moving up next year to two lap (50 m) swims with flip turns! Freestyle, breaststroke dominate, but he has a mean backstroke as well.
- Finding interest in mythology, dragon lore, all things magical, and Pokemon. He has even picked up writing his own stories now, so watch out literary world.
Jude spends his days learning new recipes and warms our bellies with wonderful dishes. Gigi is still a vice-principal at middle school in Pleasanton, CA, and trying to navigate education in a COVID-laden world.
We are all blessed to stay healthy during this time and love to see family and friends in person as we venture out. We hope to see more people soon and ready to increase our adventures again.
We love all you,
Gigi, Jude and Julan
