Holiday Program 2016

The kids had their holiday program at school last week and were adorable as usual! The play was based on winter/Christmas stories and books. I am so proud of them for learning their songs, and especially proud of Parker for making it through his first big stage performance! See videos below of their songs.












Merry Christmas!

Momming Hard Day 9... until the end of time

Things were rolling along quite nicely yesterday (well, not really but let's not get caught up in subtraction regrouping lessons).  We were getting ourselves set up for success on this temporary schedule. We were learning things and reading things and writing things and then... the bottom dropped out. The governor announced all schools are closed for the rest of the year.  I'm sure all the other parents watching the news conference had the same physical reaction that I did. I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. Tears, anger, disbelief... my poor children. ALL these poor children. When they left for spring break they didn't realize it would be the last time they'd see their friends. The last time they'd see their teachers. Ainsley, in particular, is taking it the hardest. She's missing her last Lower School play. Her last Grandparents Day show.  No field day.  No fifth grade graduation. No class graduation party. She is heartbroken. The next time she sets

Finishing up in California

A few finishing touches before wrapp ing up my trip to San Francisco. My final presentation went well, and I had a beautiful final day to spend in the city. Fisherman's Wharf My kind of place!  . One final visit to the sea lions Golden Gate Bridge One more glass of great California wine. My trip home was a little more stressful than I had hoped. Due to mechanical problems with the plane, I was re-routed and ended up spending a good part of the day and night either on a plane or in an airport. However things worked out and I made it safely home!

Parties, parties, parties!

We returned from Switzerland and immediately launched into several weeks of parties. It's been a busy but fun month, and we've enjoyed spending time with so many old (and new) friends!  First was our annual winter party, which was our first opportunity to break in the new bar with a large group. Even though this is our winter party, the temperatures soared into the sixties! We set up cornhole on the back patio and kept the doors open all night. It was a perfect evening!  Testing out the new beer pong table! Some winter cornhole!  Some of my favorite gals! Me and my favorite guy!  My DH even put on a little show (somehow there were people at the party who weren't aware of his clown past, so he had to prove his skills).  Some posing with the antlers. The following weekend we had Parker's birthday party! He was excited to celebrate at school with some cookies. He chose McDonald's for his birthday dinner out. Then on the we
