Colosseum! Please excuse the rambling tone of this post. Too much to say to make sense… Ethan knows what’s up It blows my mind that I can say things like, “For the second half of White Week, I visited Rome again.” Rome. Just for a few days. For the second time. Is this real life? […]
City of Lights and Gargoyles
They’re so cute White Week: the wonderful Italian tradition of taking a week in February to enjoy the mountains, snow, and skiing. Just strolling on down the Champs Elysees My parents and I spent the first half of the week not-skiing in the City of Lights, Paris. Since my last visit while studying abroad, I’ve […]

Last weekend, one of the teachers sent out an email that the usually super exciting Opera (sarcasm) was going to be having a wine tasting at the local library, and another new teacher […]
Day of Monet
I think that any teacher could tell you that work is never over. Harris and I on the train You can get as far ahead as you want, but there is always going to be something you could be working on. With Parent/Teacher Conferences coming up on Wednesday (AHHHHH!), I’ve gotten too wrapped […]
