I realized recently that several of my Instagram photos have the caption “Life is Good” mostly because I genuinely feel that way.  I have a great life and a great family.  There is of course also a company with the same name.  They have a great message too- “do what you love, love what you do.”

As their company has grew, Life is Good started a foundation to help children less fortunate.  To raise funds, they host a great big festival.  My school and three others collaborated to host an activity.  Last year we did the same.  Our activity was based on the idea that Montessori education is like “thinking outside the box.”  We had large cardboard boxes, colorful duct tape and markers.  And kids got to work!  (Pics here!)

Lucky for me I had my three favorite guys helping me out and reminding me why Life is Good.  It was a fun weekend with music, activities and lots of building!
