Philadelphia Flower Show

On the 62nd day of 2019, another harbinger of Spring was experienced.  On 3/3/19, Sarah and the girls had their traditional visit to the Philadelphia Flower Show with Sylvia and Vivi.  The Flower Show is always a welcome sight.  February has been cold and grey.  And, this year, early March has been cold and the weather has been damp and cold (snow, sleet, wintry mix - YUCK!)  So it's good that the Flower Show can provide colors, beauty, and lift the spirits of those who have been longing for the light of Spring.  And I love all of the pictures Sarah takes and shares.  Next week Daylight Savings starts.... maybe it'll even get warmer soon.  But, for tonight, I am grateful the we live in the Philadelphia area and that the Philadelphia Flower show provides joy, year after year.

Our Family Movie Night to Knives Out!

12/26/19, the 2nd Day of Christmas, and we made it into a Family Movie Night.  On the 360th day of 2019, we went and saw Knives Out! and it was FANTASTIC.  It was a great time out as a family and the movie was as good as advertised (+97% on Rotten Tomatoes).   It just made us all very happy and, because of that, I am grateful for our family movie night to Knives Out!  We have 2-3 more movies we want to see over break, and this was a fine start!

Christmas Cousin Swap

What a wonderful 359th day of 2019 12/25/19 was.  Of course, we all knew it'd be a good day, it's CHRISTMAS!  And we made the trek to York, PA for the whole Walters Family Christmas Dinner.  And. of course, it was delicious.  But, after Dinner, my favorite Walters Family Christmas Tradition occurred.  The six cousins sat in a circle and, after guessing who had their name, swapped Christmas presents.  And there were smiles, and laughs, and some really nice presents were exchanged.  But it was not really about the presents, it's more about the smiles and laughs and family time together.  That is why my unending gratitude is for the Christmas Cousin Swap (and all of the other Christmas Day celebratory activities).  MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!

80s Movies

During the Winter Break, we always have a lot of Family Movie Nights.  The 362nd day of 2019 was no different.  But, on 12/28/19, we found 80s movies on the On Demand.  Tonight's selections were Die Hard and St. Elmo's Fire.  CLASSICS!  So happy to be able to share my teenaged movie favorites with my teenager.  I am grateful for 80's movies and the nostalgia they bring up, and the fact that my teen likes them as much as I did/do!
