Wild and Wise Adventures

01/09/2026

We have been sneaking into 2026, slowly and intentionally.. today was the first day we’ve really been out since all of our family Christmas festivities! One of our favorites - reading and sensory day activities with our local library!

This year I’ve opted to pause on the overpacked schedules and constant rushing to the next thing so we will look a lot different soon! I’ve got a new project in the works to share in the next few days! I think you’ll love it! 🥰

Happy Thanksgiving!! 🍁🍽🦃

We have so many things to be thankful for this year - including sitting on the couch and watching tv - (If you didn’t know, the last 2 years living at our farm, we have not had that option)!!

We listened to Balloons Over Broadway story and we’re picking out the balloons we recognize in the parade and shaking our b***y and jamming to the performances! Levi is amazed by how “Big Big Big” they are! 🥰

Sorry for the unaesthetic mantel.. we just moved in this week and haven’t decorated officially yet! I cannot wait to put Christmas up!!
