The adventures have begun … 2nd grade for Thomas, 5th grade for Lillian and Reiki sessions and mentoring for Camilla. Thomas was so happy to see Mrs. Nicole! I LOVE High Desert Montessori! Great energy, great people, great environment! Now. Who needs some Reiki love?

It got really quiet while I was cooking dinner tonight. Went outside looking for Thomas and Lillian …. found them under this beautiful sky, sitting and reading together …. I’m so HappY and blessed I get to be their Mom!

Throwback Post: Library Days and Dentist Visits

**THROWBACK POST**

September 19 2015:

Team TLC library day! Bonus: Craft day too! Thomas and I picked out pieces to be a part of a charity quilt and they sewed them together on the spot. Thomas loved the loom! Oh my gosh. So grateful today was our library day and for the kindness and sharing of those who love what they do!

No school today meant going for our library trip one day early! YAY!

Relaxing and inspiring stop after Lillian’s dentist appointment. Shadow picture of mine and Lillian’s feet!

Picture of Lillian right before her dentist appointment today! She was so nervous cause she was getting xrays this time. I’m so grateful I gave myself the gift of becoming a Reiki practitioner … Gave her Reiki while we were waiting for the dentist so she was able to calm down. YAY Lillian! She did great!

I just love Reno. 💞 I had a blast last night! ❤️‍🔥 So many choices of venues, different genres, all within walking distance of one another. Not only that, we’ve got theater, live poetry, trivia nights, so many artistic outlets.

Rigorous Proof is always a a great time. I adore this band! ❣️ And Rachel’s voice (🥰) along with Mike Clark and the Sugar Sounds. Dripping with sweetness, for sure!!

Some beauty from our sunset walk last night. All 3 of us walked with our eyes towards the sky and Lillian and I were taking pictures like crazy! xoxo

Last night’s sunset had more to share than just stunning sky colors! Looked down just in time to see this! xoxo

Love, Love, Love …. The most amazing blissful day. And we didn’t go anywhere. Stayed home, read, cleaned, played a homemade LEGO game, wrote, helped Lillian with dolphin facts research, and went for our walk.

Throwback Post: Vaulting in a Wedding Dress with Handmade Stuff

**THROWBACK POST**

September 3 2014:

Spring 2014 vaulting lessons for Thomas at Center for Adaptive Riding … Looking forward to next Spring and Summer so he can do it all over again!

The week I sold my wedding dress:

Reno/Tahoe/Sparks/Sacramento and surrounding area friends: Know anyone getting married next Spring, Summer or Fall? I had been saving this for Lillian but she doesn’t want it. Go me with purging! Here’s some info. Please feel free to share .. Ilissa Wedding Dress by Demetrios. Bought brand new for nearly $900. This is the magazine photo. I have the Summer 1996 “For the Bride by Demetrios” magazine with this photo also. The dress is no longer made so it’s likely you’d be one of a kind with this one!

It was cleaned and preserved by Merry Go Round cleaners in Los Angeles and is still wrapped in a special 100% cotton liner inside a Museum Quality acid-free coffer with a 100% cotton outer cover. I wore it for my wedding in 1998 and it was preserved shortly after that.

The back is sheer like the arms. The dress is a size 8, but there were alterations made to it to fit me perfectly. It was a tad too big. I am 5’7″ to give you an idea of the length.

$450.00 or best offer

More creations for the Museum of Handmade Stuff …. made by Team Member T! A bull, a sun crawler and the egg beater … all army tanks! You go Thomas!
