Had a party yesterday! One of the kids made invitations and I helped them bake a cake.

Unfortunately it was just us (on account of all the COVID) but we had cake so it was a good party.

We literally just had cake so I'm not sure what makes it a party rather than just eating cake.

Hope the ‘Rona isn’t causing you all too much discomfort. I’m sure the baking of the cake, and making the invitations was all part of their fun. The being in isolation part is good guidance for protecting others as well as themselves.

We are doing ok. A few of us have had a day each feeling wiped out but have bounced back pretty quickly, and luckily my wife and I had different bad days.

The invitations and cake were definitely part of the fun. It started during last week when visiting grandparents, the kid decided to make invitations to a party and give them to the grandparents. Then I got asked about baking a cake and so we planned that for Saturday. The plan was to have one candle per person and you would each blow out one, but we ended up with about 15 candles and it was impossible to blow out one at a time.

Are the grandparents OK? Hope they didn’t give it to you.

They are fine, but there has been a lot of extended family around recently including some who ended up testing positive for COVID so that's probably where it came from.
