On Easter Box Saturday

 We're such rebels! 

 Inside this year's Easter box. 

 Trying out the kite that Grandma Joan and Grandpa Ron sent in the Easter box. 

 It's amazing! 

 It was the perfect day to dye Easter eggs outside! 

Happy Easter weekend to those celebrating! xo

Let's Go Fly A Kite

Yesterday we met up at Elm Bank with a group of Waldorf homeschoolers that we get together with every now and then. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and we were happy to spend pretty much all of it outside. The hill that we were gathered on was a lovely, shady spot and perfect for rolling down, exploring and flying kites! The kids, with help from the mamas as needed, would stand about half way up the hill, hold the kite up, get a running start and off the kite would fly! It was quite a sight to behold as each of the kids found success when it came to kite flying yesterday! And seriously, could this gnome kite be any cuter?! xo

9:15am

Usually at 9:15am we're just getting our day started. Usually we're still in our jammies and toying with the idea of breakfast. Usually we're just beginning to share with each other what we'd like to do that day. Today, though, the girls had other plans and got up and dressed and outside by 9:15am. Determination and a new kite are very powerful things, my friends. With very little discussion but a lot of teamwork their mission was accomplished when they got the kite airborne on their first try! Way to go, girls! What a fabulous start to a beautiful (albeit cold) day!
