Last Picture with Grandma and Grandpa Muller
Posted in Elizabeth, Family, Janie, Susanna, Tommy on Apr 1st, 2017
It’s been a busy week here, playing catch-up with schoolwork, making it to physical therapy, getting receipts in to insurance, and going back to CBS, so there are no pictures of life, but here was our last photo shoot with Grandma and Grandpa before they headed home!
LA Opera Open House Day

The big three kids were huge fans of their first visit to the LA Opera! We got to hear soloists from the Young Artists program sing famous arias, saw Placido Domingo himself in person, checked out sample costumes and props (many from shows that Derek and I have seen!), watched one of the six full-time […]
Last weekend, I took the girls to see their babysitter, Jennifer, in a new production of Cinderella. They loved our girls-only date! Beforehand, Oaks Christian put on this whole cute little princess tea, with yummy treats, chances to meet all the actors, and even face painting. As you would expect from a high school theatre […]

I love our writing curriculum, which gives the kids a taste of all sorts of great literature and whets their appetite for more! The girls are cuddled up listening to Little Women after today’s Writing With Ease lesson. I love my little women!
Piano Lessons

We started piano lessons with the big three kids this semester, and while there have been some tears, I am so glad we are doing it. Annaleise is a Pepperdine music major who comes to our house, which is all I could handle this spring. It is fun to see that all the kids inherited […]
