The End of Summer


We were able to get tickets for Shakespear in the Park this summer! It was also on our summer bucket list. If you ever want to get tickets go when it rains. Nobody is in line and usually the rain is not that bad. That is how we got to see it these past two years. The show will go on too. It was raining when we got to the Delacourt theatre, and it did start late, but the show still went on. We brought our ponchos and a nice blanket that was waterproof on one side so it all worked out. This year we saw "Loves Labor Lost". It was a new musical on the Shakespear play. Really really funny. We laughed our heads off pretty much the whole time. 


Tut-tut it looks like rain while we waited in line to get tickets for Shakespear in the Park. She has a rain cover for her stroller, but much prefers the umbrella.


Took this one oursevles.


Happy happy girl.


She loved rearranging the drinks in the drink cooler. 


At Vive La Crepe! We were pretty much obsessed with this place for a little while. Okay, so I was really obsessed with this place. The baby was really liking the flavors. Savory crepes, man. They just hit the spot. This is one of our favorite places to go. I am thinking tonight for dinner. Meet us there if you want :-). 


I have said it before but this girl loves taking the public transoporation in the city. Especially when Daddy makes the stroller go fast.

That is a wrap for our family's summer adventures.

Traveling Half Way around the World

Image
We made it to Manila! We flew over the US and the Pacific Ocean to get here. Our total travel time was 55 hours. It was long but surprisingly not bad at all. Cosette was an angel and the Haneda Airport in Tokyo was like a hotel. If those two things had been any different attitude in writing would not be so positive. This odessy of a journey begun way before our first flight. Packing up our apartment for our subletters took a lot longer than we supposed it would. So instead of being refreshed and ready for the long trip over we were tried and I did not want to get out of bed. We got enough sleep to keep on going till our flight from NYC to San Fransicso where we tried to rest. That flight for me was the worst. Cosette did sleep but was up for a lot of it. The plane was cramped and Lyndon and I were seperated by the aile. Thankgoodness for kind and patient people who sat next to us. Playing at the San Fransico airport.   Our flight to Japan was awesome. We had a

Remote Learning Part 1

Image
Remote learning is over for now, thank goodness. We have been doing remote learning since March 20. We are experts at google classroom, zoom meetings, and google meets. It's been rough, but we did it!  This post is long and detailed about what each kid had to do everyday for school. It was intense. The kids did wonderfully. Their teachers are amazing! They worked around the clock to learn all the new technology, meeting with students individually. I received personal phone calls from them asking what they could do to help and also talking to my kids. I am so grateful for the teachers they had this year.  All three kids participated in remote learning. Each grade/teacher did something different. What they all had to do was answer and attendance question by noon, read for thirty minutes a day, and I-ready (an assessment program that helped determine where they were in math and reading).  Third Grade: Cosette's assignments were what she was doing in school. She completed two huge

Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day! This has become one of my favorite holidays in the last few years. This year especially I am really into it. It probably has to do with my sweet Lyndon who proposed to me on V-Day four years ago. Since then he has made Valentine's Day a fun and special day. He always surprises me with something fun. Usually we go eat some where fabulous and go see a ballet or opera. He likes to do something cultural on this speical day. This year I am getting into the spirit more. Cosette can do a lot more things. We made special Valentine's for our families and made yummy cookies. She kept sneaking cookie dough and eating it. She is my daughter.  The finished product waiting for Lyndon. I went to the Cake Boss Bakery last year to get Lyndon something for V-day and was inspired to make the dark chocolate bowls filled with chocolate covered strawberries. It was a lot easier that I anticipated. Oh, and that cloth on the table are the pajama pants
