MIDWINTER TAPAS

As we pull together the pictures since our last post, we realize we have had quite the sampling of events in January and the first half of February.  With this in mind, we decided to go tapas style and give you small bites of the fun we cooked up over the past few weeks.

APPETIZERS - Noise and energy from the children add spice to our lives.
