Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Tree of Tears (July 2015)

About four years ago, we came back from a camping trip to find that a neighbour’s tree had split and was being removed. One of the branches hung over the fence into our yard and Sasha had some tears when she realised she’d no longer have a swing.  I had tears too but they were […]

Saturday Snap – A Little Leprechaun Indeed! ;-)

Sasha recently presented us with this piece of artwork which required us to very delicately sit her down and have her talk us through some of her artistic choices.

Saturday Snap – “Go Outside to Play and Don’t Come Home Until Supper!”

The kids are obviously living up to the title of the board game by beating their parents pretty handily in a game of “Beat The Parents” tonight. 🙂

Five Highlights of Our @hyattzivacancun Vacation

Last year, I did a list of 10 highlights of our winter vacation. We stayed at Moon Palace for two weeks instead of one week like we did at Hyatt Ziva this year so I think the math works out if I only do a list of five highlights instead of ten. 😉 First View […]

Friday Fun Link – What I Did On My Winter Vacation

Sasha and I visited her classroom earlier this week to share a bit about some of the animals we saw during our Mexico vacation.
