I’m Starting A School!

The last few weeks have been quite the evolution for us regarding homeschooling.  Chris and I have had many discussions about what teaching our daughters means for my schedule and time, and how that relates to our goals for the future. &nbs[...]

Revisiting Homeschooling

One of the first things we did after moving to Wyoming was tour preschools.  I had thought getting Nora started with a school would be the best way for her to meet other kids while giving me more time to get things done around the house an[...]

Adventures in Schooling

This week marked the official start of our adventures in schooling.  We are still very much on the fence about what we will do when kindergarten rolls around -- whether we'll be doing homeschool or one of the two private schools -- so for[...]

‘Tis the Season for Craftiness

One of the reasons I am much more in the holiday spirit this year is because it is an extra excuse for making crafts, and because of how much Nora enjoys those crafts.  We've made a few of the traditional art projects (tissue paper wreath brin[...]

Z was Raja in an Aladdin production through her dance studio @pasgeorgetown this evening and she did such a great job. I loved watching her. She took a year off dance and is getting back into it and you'd barely know she took any time off, plus she had a big smile on her face the whole time - I could tell she was having a ton of fun. ♥️

What happens when you go on a long weekend trip with only your husband, no kids, and no agenda? 

Lots of walking, cocktails in the middle of the day, singing at a piano bar, and time to write a blog post for the first time in nearly two years. Which I did! 

😮 For real. LOL 😊

Today Chris and I have been married for 15 years. We're celebrating with our first weekend away from children while my mom watches all four girls. We rented an old Victorian from the 1800s near the coast in Galveston, Texas and spent the day at a spa, eating delicious food, walking the beach under the stars, and finished the night with a bottle of bourbon saved from when we lived on Nantucket. I'm not sure I could have asked for a much better day. I even had an oppotunity to get out the lightship basket purse Chris gave me for our 5th anniversary. ♥️

We had a cold snap and yesterday we had to get all bundled up for Zara's soccer game. It was 30 degrees and, despite these pictures, Vivi's patience for being out there did not last long. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 80 degrees and we're really looking forward to warmth again.

By the way, my awesome gaiter came from our client @isacattostudio. Isa paints patterns and makes really beautiful textiles and notebooks with her patterns. ♥️ her work and team.
