One of the many things I love about our local elementary school is the many “extras” that are offered. There are many opportunities to participate in music, art, technology and many field trips. This week I had the pleasure of watching my girl participate in an opera, The Magic Flute. The San Francisco Opera Guild came… Read More The Magic Flute
Our family wish list for our new home and neighborhood and several things on it. We knew that we wouldn’t be able to find a home that had all these things, but it was fun to dream. A few of the items that we did not get are, a tree house and a jack-n-jill bathroom… Read More The Little Things
