Sick but make it cute

Poo Kap has been so sick. Just when we think it’s over, it comes roaring back. Poor Buddy…












Upstairs trees

We’ve never had Christmas trees upstairs before. Isla decided she wanted one so she cleaned her room,
Moved her furniture around and wouldn’t let it go so here we are- we have Christmas tree(s) upstairs now. Yes- that’s plural… Kap had to have one too of course.

All the big ornaments are hand-made by Isla herself.




Q and Isla’s workshop

Q and isla spent hours making ornaments and gifts and notes for their 15 dance teachers. They worked so hard personalizing everything and we’re so proud! Also- our house will never be the same.








Isla arranged a little family secret Santa

I love watching her come up with ideas and executing them. Such a little leader!!






FaceTime with Uncle Poo- literally

Nutcracker 2023

What a weekend!! It was so cool to have two kiddos in the show. It was even more cool to see it all come together backstage. The best part though….? How many teachers stopped me backstage to tell me how much they adored Q and Isla because of how kind, hard-working and silly they are. One even told me that the teachers always ask how one family could have two perfect kids!! I told her that there was a third one that broke the mold - kidding of course!! 

Anyway- it was awesome! Exhausting but so great. The other best part was seeing how many people made the drive to support them. More pics to come from the photog- but until then- here’s a few!!




Isla helping with the teenies- she has so much pride in being asked to help out. I love that they think of these little ways to grow our kiddos.
