So this is it-- I mean REALLY it! We are fully out of the city now and starting our new country life in northern Vermont. I must admit it's been pretty fun saying "we live in Vermont and Manhattan" for the last year and having fantastic places to dwell in, but ultimately our hearts and needs are in the country- together. Of course, we will always visit the city and love knowing where to go and how to get there! But for the summer our focus will be on rediscovering what it is like living together as a threesome, trying to make us a foursome (haha), and taking over an art store (The Studio Store) on Main Street, Johnson! Yup, we are going to be Mom&Pop shopkeepers and Olive is going to grow up surrounded by high quality art supplies and the Green Mountains of Vermont. Not a bad life, i'd say.....Thank you all for supporting us on our journey getting here....<3
Dear Kyle, You are always full of surprises and your final NYC post is chock full of them!! Joy to Vermont the Mahnke's are arriving on Main Street. Love ya all!!
ReplyDeleteGot to keep you on your toes, Cynthia! Thank you for your well wishes and love!! xoxo
DeleteHoping life in Vermont will bless you all! How great that you will be opening up a shop. Looking forward to all your pictures from spring / summer country life. Vermont is so beautiful ❤
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tamara! It's a big leap of faith, but if you're going to leap best to do it in a lush green field in Vermont! ;-) Sending love to you and yours back! xoxo
DeleteGorgeous photos (they made me long for NYC) and a gorgeous path (which made me really feel and miss Vermont and the simple, beautiful life it creates space for). Wishing you and your (growing?!) family love, meaningful growth and expansive abundance in your new choice. XO
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jessie! You said it perfectly...simple, beautiful life it creates space for. That is why we are here and not there anymore. Come visit! :) Not preggo yet, but once we are settled in we are going to try. :)
DeleteI am so happy for you all! Sounds like you have wonderful things in store...And I totally nailed it with guessing you are trying for #2 (your Pinterest posts of cute baby things don't lie lol).
