Posted on January 1, 2021January 1, 2021by sarah

two christmasses, twentytwenty.

Posted on December 30, 2020December 30, 2020by sarah

we made it to christmas in 2020! it’s been a year, right? when our thanksgiving plans were ruined by some covid spiking, and then things just kept getting worse, i assumed that there was no way we would be celebrating our traditional “swedish” christmas with grandlidboms and madge. but, the grandlidboms pulled it off. we […]

october 2020 happenings around home.

Posted on December 29, 2020December 29, 2020by sarah

initially, our travel plans for october took up the entire month, so we weren’t planning on much halloween decorating. but we came home a week early, so the obvious choice was to go all out decorating for halloween and/or fall. the girls and i went to a little farm stand in lewisville (rogers nursery) where […]

lenoir camping, etcetera.

Posted on December 29, 2020December 29, 2020by sarah

we ended up not staying in lenoir for very long. the two weeks in the outer banks preceding it, combined with upcoming halloween and a visit from my parents caused us to cut it a bit short. but, we packed in a few good hikes (previously blogged), took some good drives, and had quality downtime.

fall hike at the chimneys.

Posted on December 29, 2020December 29, 2020by sarah

for our last fall leaves adventure of 2020, we decided to go for vista views over waterfalls. we deliberated between finding a new spot or revisiting an old favorite hike, but in the end “old favorite” won out and we returned to the chimneys in linville gorge. the drive to the hike is an adventure […]

fall at crabtree falls.

Posted on December 28, 2020December 28, 2020by sarah

after our trip to the outer banks, we had a one day layover at home, doing laundry and switching out wardrobes, before heading to lenoir for a few days in the mountains. it was peak leaf season, so we wanted to see some beautiful fall color, but we also wanted to balance that with other […]

Posted on December 28, 2020December 28, 2020by sarah

ok! we’ve made it to my last post about our time in the outer banks. we were there for almost two weeks, so even though we had a lot of excursions, and spent a lot of time at the beach, there was still time back at camp, just hanging, doing boring stuff. this is a […]

the ocean pursuit wreck.
OBX adventure

Posted on December 28, 2020December 28, 2020by sarah

i’m not exactly sure how i happened upon it, most likely it was instagram, but when i found out there was a ship sinking in the sand somewhere near our campground, i made it a personal quest to figure out it’s exact location and take a field trip. the ocean pursuit is a 72′ scallop […]

ocracoke day.
OBX adventure.

Posted on December 28, 2020December 28, 2020by sarah

we knew that for one of derek’s days off while we were in the outer banks, we wanted to make the long cruise down to ocracoke, to check things out. it’s about an hour or so to the hatteras-ocracoke ferry from our campground, so we obviously stopped for duck donuts along the way. (the girls […]
