We had a wonderful Easter Sunday. The kids were excited to come down and check out their Easter baskets. Note to self: do not wait til the day before Easter to shop for goodies. Despite the slim pickins at Target, the kids were happy with what they got (play doh, noisemakers and Bey Blades...
Wendy & Sam have been taking piano lessons since the summer and just had their first piano recital last weekend. Lessons have been a bit of a struggle at times. Wendy claims she does not like them AT ALL and doesn’t want to take them and HATES piano. However, she will frequently sit down...

The kids select an animal they are interested in, and then spend time learning about the animal and it’s habitat. It’s been really interesting to see how learning about animals has made a broader impact on my...
In preparation for Back to School, all three of my kiddos got haircuts. We’ve been to different Arlington establishments, but this time I took all three to the Hair Cuttery. My girl was thrilled to go to a “real” salon and especially loved getting her hair washed and using the bubble dryer. I was...
We recently purchased an iPad, in anticipation of our cross-country travels, and we have been having fun exploring different apps.
