•Spring!• Eek! My first crocus of the season!! With daffodils & tulips on their way. 🌷 ✨ Of course, I know how New England springs work. I just hope the snow doesn’t steal my daffodils this year. 🤞 ✨ #spring #crocus #daffodils #tulip #garden #springinnewengland #comeonspring #readytogarden

•determination• This little one wants to do it all BY HERSELF. I can hardly make her lunch for her anymore. Not that I’m complaining....with three kids, I can use some helping hands. 🥪 ✨ I can’t believe she’s almost 3. I swear she was just born last week. Time is funny like that. ⏰ ✨ #strongwill #determination #independenttoddler #toddlerlife #doitmyself #threeyearold #threenager #pbj

•Finishing touches• The renovation is pulling slowly into the station. I’m reaching the stage I’ve been planning and thinking about for years. Hanging the frames, placing the chachskis, creating the space. I love creating spaces. It’s my favorite. 🏠 ✨ ❤️ the thrift store, upcycled frames from @trexframes, my sweet row of wooden houses from @amber_dusick and a baobab tree made by a local artist in South Africa that has followed me around since my visit back in early 2000. #home ❤️ ✨ #feelslikehome #baobabtree #baobab #handmade #handmadecrafts #spaces #myspaces #hygge #creatingspaces #thisoldhouse #renovation #renovationlife

•Kung Fu Demo• Hard work. Commitment. Focus. Bravery. My boy made me so proud today. 🙌 ✨ Thank you for snapping this shot while I was filming @shepherdsrunjewelry 📷 ✨ #kungfu #braveboy #demonstration #martialarts #homeschooling #selfdirectedlearning #davissquaremartialarts

•Future flower girl 🌸• This beauty had a ball today trying on dresses for @eleni_la_loca ‘s wedding. This is the one she chose. As she was going to bed tonight, she said: Mama, didn’t I look like a queen in that dress? 👸🏻 ✨ #flowergirl #flowergirldress #queen #littlegirls

•Out my window• We woke up to a thick blanket of snow weighing heavy on those branches. It was quiet & beautiful. ❄️ ✨ Then it was two sweaty hours later of shoveling out and doing the hustle of suiting up my 3 small humans in a million layers so we could hit the sledding hills. I wanted to just crawl back under the covers and keep enjoying the view. But despite the whining (from them and me) I busted tail, climbed the hills and everyone had a solid snow day. 🛷 ✨ And now, we collapse. 😴 ✨ #snowday #sledding #outmywindow #myview #windowview #snowfun

•sledding• It was beautiful today after a fresh layer of snow and the bright sun shining. We had a fun morning sledding with our homeschool coop! 🛷 ✨ Swipe to see a video of the avalanche of sledders barreling down the hill. Their squeals and laughs on the way down say it all. ❄️ ✨ #snowday #sledding #snowfun #homeschool #homeschoolcoop #unschooling

•Makers Gonna Make• My oldest has been asking to learn how to play Pokémon cards and I said if he saved his money he could buy a deck and play. We researched a starter deck, priced it out and then he set a goal for how much money he needed to earn.🤑 ✨ After a few days, he was getting antsy as it was taking longer to earn the money and he wanted to play now. So, he spent the morning making his own cards and game board then taught his brother how to play his version. 🙌 ✨ #makersgonnamake #homemade #homeschool #selfdirectedlearning #unschooling #homemadegames #pokemon

•Snow Fun• Finally. All winter we have had these snow storms that finish with slushy rain leaving it less than desirable to get out and play in. I was so excited to finally have a good ol’ New England snow storm today when my whole family could be home to enjoy it together. ❄️ ✨ Snowball fights, fun with slow mo shots, a somewhat successful family selfie & even a shot with my love ❤️ ✨ We came inside and warmed up with cups of hot chocolate and board games. ☕️ ✨ Perfect snow day ⛄️💫 ✨ #snowday #slowmotion #slowmosnow #slowmotionsnow #familyselfie #snowball #snowballfight

•snow day• Good morning snow! I love snow days on a vacation day when we can just admire it from the window and not do the hustle of suiting up, shoveling out and sliding around to get to where we need to go. ❄️ ✨ Instead I can make another cuppa tea, snuggle in and enjoy. ☕️ ✨ Though, let’s be honest, 3 kids will only chill for so long so we will suit up and head out to play in it at some point today. ⛄️ ✨ #snowday #yaysnow #cozy #hygge #cuppatea #snuggle #whataview #vacationday #window #outmywindow

•Happy Valentine’s Day• So many sweet homemade Valentines made in this last week. My favorite was a series of these heart guys carrying their own Valentines. ❤️ ✨ #happyvalentinesday #homemadevalentines #willyoubemyvalentine #valentines #heart

•bikes• Climate change is terrifying and 2030 is not that far away. But, bike riding in February in New England is a rare treat. 🚲 ✨ I guess this is turning lemons to lemonade?? 🍋 ✨ #climatechange #climatechangeisreal #2030 #bikeridinginwinter #bikeriding #butreallyclimatechangeisreal
