March Around The Web

March 31, 2020

Hello, everyone! I hope you are well, what a strange and sad month March turned out to be! We were lucky to safely make it back from Costa Rica and shortly after that Kansas City went into social distancing full swing. I don’t know what April will bring but I do know that I’m thinking of everyone affected by Covid-19, especially New York City. And as a wife of a doctor I’m really proud of all the amazing health care workers. I especially loved seeing rainbows in Brooklyn as shared by Joanna of Cup of Jo – the three story rainbow window display by Linsey Laidlaw and her kids takes the cake!

Not only is Hallmark giving away 2 million cards to help us all stay connected, but you can download free coloring pages over on Think.Make.Share.!
Being home so much I’m in the mood to DIY! Not sure I have all the materials but I would love to make my own scrunchies.
Another quarantine activity on my list: a flower drawing challenge!
I’m also hoping to start reading more. Loved this book roundup and Carly’s friends’ favorite picks!
If you are feeling up to some Spring cleaning this is a great list (only if you are like me and cleaning usually helps me relax!)
You know I adore pasta, so therefore this guide
One thing I’m really missing is visiting Family Tree Nursery with friends. Might have to start propagating my plants, which might require these beautiful vessels!
And if I get really bored I might get around to cleaning my brass.
Pura Vida, Friends

Manuel Antonio National Park

March 23, 2020

On day four of our trip to Costa Rica we headed to Manuel Antonio National Park! After finally finding somewhere to park we headed in and started exploring. My dad and I choose to get a guide in order to see more animals while Sophie, Alex, Grace and my mom spent the morning walking around and at the beach. The park is beautiful, but it is pretty difficult to spot all the animals without help! Our guide had a magnifying lens that we could hold our phones up to to take close up photos of sloths, snakes, dragonflies, and more!

After our tour ended my dad and I met back up with everyone and walked around the beach for a bit. By then we were hungry and decided to head back into town for another round of casados. That evening we enjoyed more time at the house, just relaxing in the pool was one of our favorite parts of the trip. And Grace even found some time to do a couple photoshoots, with the scenery to work with she couldn’t help it!
