Boston day-trip 

Waring School arts camp was great, who is now an aspiring Camp Counselor - A little magic show here from Aoli.

It's hard to see but Aoli on stage here in an end-of-camp show.

A week-long summer baking program produced amazing treats for me every single day.  Aoli continues to show amazing cooking skills.

Fresh lobsters from the Hawley's!  Aoli's favorite summer food.

Happy Six Months Home Aoli!!!

Happy Six Months Home Aoli!!  We are very happy too.

Six months has been a big milestone.  We are having a great time together...some photos here to share.

No kidding.  Aoli loves museums just like her mama.  Some photos here at the DeCordova.

Aoli & Marissa (A's instant best friend- oh the tears that we see as M. has to go home, 1.5 hours away!) enjoying Jim Dine at the Sculpture Park.

The long awaited bicycle.

Aoli's knit kit.

First trip to the ocean.

Absolutely thrilled with the installation of the tree-tire swing!

Aoli's 40 minute commute to school makes for a long day.  She will never admit to being tired but the truth has a way of making itself known.

Violet, decked out in four of Aoli's handmade necklaces and swanky scarf.

A big thank you to Chris & Family for yet another gift package!!
