I want to share with you about our summer adventures. Still, I procrastinate these types of posts because I struggle with the right words looking back. Often it feels like when I share an overview of our family's experiences it can come across as either bragging or boring . What I hope is that you…
Unexpected Harvest
We had just gotten out of the car after getting dinner when L asks me "so what are we doing with all these pots". I had purchased a few larger colorful pots earlier this year in hopes of expanding on my backyard herb garden. After Z's plant preschool lessons I had intended on planting with…
Trail side snacks
Let me assure you that if I am silent on this blog it is not because I have nothing to share. In fact, it is probably the exact opposite. My life is overflowing with little and big adventures: life lessons and teachable moments (for myself along with my kids). My life may just be so…

Preschool: June

There were Island-themed games, pizza, and cake. Z loved finally being able to see his class' volcano (they made) erupt…
Preschool: May
At "big boy" preschool this month, Z enjoyed celebrating mother's and father's day. For the mother's day event we were asked to bring a creative floral arrangement.
