While we had fun at home the last Easter, we were excited to find an opportunity for a hunt out and about this year! The wet weather kept others away – so plenty of room to fill up on eggs and outside fun!
Foggy Adventure
We were hopeful another weekend in wine country would bring nice weather, but it wasn’t meant to be. While it wasn’t too cold, it wasn’t exactly clear and bright. It didn’t dampen our spirits or appetite, so in the end, all was well!
Signs of Spring
The weather is starting to break and we have been able to take advantage of more outside time! In a win for both kids and parents, we went back to a nearby winery. The wine-Girl Scout cookie pairing turned out to be a win all around, as were the crepes. But, the sun and fresh…
Playing in the Park
We’ve had LOTS of quality time just the four of us, and a LOT of time around the house and neighborhood. Thankfully, we have a great neighborhood park to help keep us sane when the cabin fever becomes too much!
Back in Wine Country
After having a good time in December, we ventured back to Bluemont Vineyards. Instead of decorate-your-own-cookies, it was a cupcake tasting to go along with the wine and hot chocolate. While cold, we were prepared and had a great time out of the house!
A Trio of Visits – Part 2
Despite frigid temperatures, we did get outside while hanging at our favorite area cabin in February. The ice made for some interesting travels, but it was a successful way to get rid of the wiggles and burn some energy!
A Trio of Visits – Part 1
Because of COVID, we did not head to Williamsburg for an 8th President’s Day Weekend in a row. But, we did hit up a familiar place – the Cuddly Cub Cabin! It was our third season, and third visit. With the chill and ice outside, we got cozy inside and enjoyed some extra special Valentine’s…
Movie Night!
It took just under 11 months, but we hit a momentous milestone during the pandemic – watching 100 original movies during our new-to-the-pandemic movie night tradition. From Onward in mid-March 2020 to Ice Age 2 as movie #100, we’ve seen pretty much everything Disney has to offer ever and then some from other sources. We…
First Snow of the Season
We enjoyed the first snow of the season as January came to a close – luckily having stocked up on some solid winter gear for our Finland trip 14 months prior, which kept us comfy cozy. After sledding as much as we could, we enjoyed some hot chocolate by the fire. Snow day, done right.
