Valentine's Day

We celebrated Valentines this weekend with lots of special parties! First up was Allison's final class party at CTK. It was a little bittersweet for mom but Allison had a great time. We followed-up with an amazing dinner at Hardscrabble for the four of us. The food was amazing and company were amazing!

For Valentine's Day we all pitched in for a four course meal! Allison made bruschetta, truffle and parmesan French fries, and tomatoes with balsamic drizzle. The main course was courtesy of Dad and Mom and included a beef wellington, bacon wrapped asparagus, and creamy Duchess potatoes. Finally, desert was courtesy of Abigail and was a strawberry, chocolate ganache cake (and cappuccinos for the adults). 

After dinner, we watched movies together on the couch. It was a great Valentine's day with the family.

Much Love,

Cheer

 Abigail cheers at every basketball game and today was a special treat because Northside played Fayetteville which is where her cousin, Sally Kate, cheers. During one of the breaks they got to hang out and say hi to each other. Abigail even snapped a picture to share with mom! Very cute to see them in their uniforms.

Much Love,

Snomageddon

What a week! We ended up homebound for most of the week due to sub-zero temperatures and about 12" of snow/ice. The sleet started on Friday night and continued until early Sunday morning. Fortunately, we were well prepared with enough food to last the week. The girls ended up being out of school the whole week, so we got lots of family time. We headed to the park a couple of times to let the kids enjoy some sledding. The ice was very thick and we didn't make it out of freezing until Thursday afternoon. It was a fun snow week!

Future Buff!

As Allison is wrapping up her final year at CTK, all the 5th graders were invited to Trinity for the day so they could get an idea of what life as middle schooler will look like. Allison had a blast exploring Trinity and meeting the other students that will be attending next year. Now that we're nearing the end of of the school year, all of these "lasts" are getting a little too real!

Cotillion

 Allison started cotillion classes this weekend. She was very excited to get started. After her first class she came home with suggestions on how we could improve our etiquette and manners. She looked like such a grown up in her cotillion attire. She'll have a few more classes which won't wrap up until March. We looking forward to seeing how much she learns and grows from this experience.

Much Love,

Abigail gets braces

Abigail got braces today! She's been waiting to have them put on until after school pictures and Christmas and today was finally the day. She opted for blue as her color and we think she looks super cute!

New Years 2026!!

Half of the decade is over and Casa Ledezma rode into the new year with the traditional party and games. 2025 was a busy year of firsts, some really big challenges, but as always lots of fun and love. We started the evening with a great spread of food followed by cards and board games. Then we moved on to karaoke and watched the ball drop to ring in the New Year. We're excited to see what 2026 brings!

Much Love,
