Back at Glebe again for the last time together as we have 1st and 5th graders! With summer seeming to start and end in a flash, the boys were excited to reunite with friends and tell tales of summer camp, travel and other adventures and begin another year of learning and fun!
Sweden for the Day
While we had plenty to do in Denmark, it was fun to tick another country off the list and head to Sweden for the day – specifically Malmo. We enjoyed art and history at Malmo Castle, walked the downtown and ate well before heading back for what some considered the highlight of the trip –…
Kobenhavn Danmark
Copenhagen was a fun change of pace from Billund and all the Lego – though there were plenty of Lego stores to be found. We got exposed to a bit more culture and history, though one of the oldest amusement parks in the world kept it light and fun, too! Our home base at City…
Lego House!

Our big summer adventure was to Denmark, where the first stop was Billund, home to the most famous brick in the world – Lego! We stayed at the Castle Hotel and made the most of our stay with several days of Lego-filled adventures at Legoland and Lego House!
Another Sleep Away Camp
Colin was gone for quite some time this summer at sleep away camp, but this time it was with friends at their home near Philly for some intense basketball fun (and more)! He got life with a brother and a few sisters, a sweet set up at a Phillies game, plus plenty of fun at…
Card-Carrying Italians
It was a three-year-long process (somewhat quick comparatively), but the journey for recognition of Italian citizenship was as complete as it was going to be – passports were in hand! What began as a discovery, turned into 10 months of research and documentation gathering before an appointment at the Italian Embassy in April 2021 (see…
A Night at the Museum
Some of us had a different adventure this summer by staying late at the Museum of Natural History with a friend. There were exhibits, demonstrations, challenges and more – all well after some of our bedtimes. That made it all the more fun!
