Alice's Wonderland is MOVING!

Oh, the symbolism... Alice and Lizzie's lives are so very intertwined that separating events into "Lizzie's" and "Alice's" for blog posts has become downright intractable. (Lately we've solved the problem by posting to NEITHER blog, but surely that's not optimal...) So we're creating a new blog, "FurstenGirls" (get it? Furstenberg Girls? So clever... right? right?? hmf. Anyway....) You'll find the new combined adventures of Lizzie and Alice posted there now, though we'll maintain permanent links to both of the now archival "Alice's Wonderland" and "Lizzie Kat News". We'll continue to post to Picasa, and we've posted a new feature on the new blog, which (apparently) will allow you to get email feeds of blog posts. (So you can be SURE how little we're posting.) Enjoy! Here is the new blog: furstengirls.blogspot.com

5 months in 5 blurbs

Ough.  Months.  MONTHS since my last post.  Let's just say life has been busy around here.  A recap:

We had an enchanted holiday season, with all of our family here. Our first Christmas at (our new) home:

Not a whole lot of snow, but enough...

Lots of time inside led to some pretty creative Daddy-led projects:

And some projects initiated by the younger set (Lizzie calls these "whiskers"):

As the snow melted, we were treated to more spring like weather and Easter celebrations (though, alas, the two did not coincide):

So there we have it: 5 months in 5 blurbs.  From here on I (we) will TRY to stay more updated with the blog, recognizing that some day the kids will read these entries (Hi girls -- love you; stay in school; be nice; eat your peas...) and will wonder into what deep crevasse their parents must have fallen these past months, to have kept us from journaling their childhood exploits for posterity's sake.
