Our Tiny Angel had her Nutcracker debut over the weekend! Olivia’s ballet studio puts on an elaborate production of The Nutcracker every year in November. Each age group that takes classes has a role so the entire studio can be involved, with the youngest being the Ballet I 5-6 year olds playing the Tiny Angels.…… Continue reading The Nutcracker 2023
Just as I predicted last month, October has flown by and was full to the brim! We’ve spent just about every Saturday at the soccer fields, for anywhere from 1 to 3 games for the day. Each one has a practice on a weeknight, so we are hitting soccer three times a week for now.…… Continue reading Life Lately- October 2023

Welcome back! If you missed Part 1, click here! Day 4 was Monday morning, and after extensive research, we got ourselves to the correct train station (apparently the Tube and the train are different, and some are both but not all train stations are Tube stations and not all Tube stations are train stations.
