January Wrap Up

 And just like that January is over. This month went incredibly fast and unfortunately I did not post on here nearly as much I had hoped. Alas, I suppose that is to be expected with our very full days and two older girls!  

One never knows where Gretchen will pop up next! 

Watching Kamala break tat glass ceiling was truly incredible!  We are so grateful that intelligence, kindness an compassion are back in the White House.  

Grace's art skills never cease to impress. So truly grateful that the girls grew up as Waldorf kids and that they get to be part of Seasons of Seven and continue their Waldorf education. Seasons of Seven is the perfect fit for them and such a lovely community. So grateful that arts are such an important part of the Waldorf world and that our girls get to incorporate them into all aspects of their life and learning. 

Sundays at the mountain are  a wee bit different this year but at least they get to ski. Since ski team isn't 9:00am-3:00pm due to Covid this year, they do not head up with Dave first thing in the morning. Instead, I drop them off so that they have time to get a few runs in before grabbing lunch and then heading to ski team. Today, we had Dave meet up with us during drop off! It's always a treat when he meets them and even more of a treat when he comes to say hello to me! Wishing you all a lovely last night of January and a sweet and love-filled February! xo 

In The Enchanted Forest

On Saturday we surprised the girls with a trip to the Lost Shoe for their Harry Potter event. 

It was only our second time dining in since the pandemic began last March. Dave and I walk to the Shoe every morning. They had the inside decorated as an enchanted forest. We had talked about going in December but never did, so when we saw that they were doing a Harry Potter themed event this past weekend we just knew we had to go! I am realizing now I did not take any pictures of the forest while we were there! 

Dave's Butterbeer (and sample of one of the beers he really liked that they carried this holiday season). 

Golden Snitches. You can't have an HP event without them! 

Babies first soda (yes, for real)! 

Delicious food, good company and a lovely night all around! We loved that it wasn't crowded and that we had this wonderful little nook to ourselves! The perfect place for our second time dinning out! xo 

Saturday Morning Sewing

Today, Grace and Emma went over to their friend Adelaide's house so that Grace could share her pointe shoe sewing wisdom with Adelaide. When I arrived to pick them up they were still working on their shoes so it gave me a chance to chat with Adelaide's mom (and my dear friend) Clare. Emma and Adalaide have been dancing together since kindergarten and have such a sweet friendship (the kind I hope lasts forever). Grace, Emma and Adelaide are such a good trio and I am so grateful that not only are they such good friends but that our families are wonderful friends too! xo

Captured this moment as the girls were getting their stuff together to head to ski team. Gorgeous day to be on the mountain (and pretty impressive picture captured by my iPhone through the rearview mirror)! xo
