Now that the ground is covered in snow, I miss you more then ever, with your simple, satisfying menu and your ample lawn seating. We love Las Vegas so when Matt asked if we wanted to come with him on his overnight, we were so there! We only had the day to play, but we chilled out by the pool, walked the strip, and saw a show. We may have spent more time in travel then we did in Vegas, but it was totally worth it! This is the first time that Josie has traveled as a "reader". Watching her completely submerged in her first chapter book, I realized that both of my children can now entertain themselves. This, of course, means that I now have the time to entertain myself. Ithaca Festival feels like the official start of Summer. We went 3 days in a row and had perfect weather. The shows and shops were fun and we ran into a bunch of friends. Now we are primed and ready for the outdoor Summer Concert Series! Josie has been very motivated to learn multiplication. She very organically put her head around the concept of multiplying a few weeks ago while playing with 12 plastic triangles she salvaged from the corners of newly purchased picture frames. Now we find multiples everywhere. Today, she used math blocks to complete a multiplication coloring sheet.
