tricks or treats. 2015.
yesterday was halloween. obviously. and it was a saturday. so we had all day to get worked up about it. all along, the plan was for isaac to be harry potter. hazel would be olaf. and anna wanted to be a mix of darth vader and a princess. we just weren’t sure if it would […]
september.

a boring august recap.
the second half of summer flew past in a flash. i hit up some consignment sales for clothes for the annababy, who can still squeeze into 4t clothes, but they are quite short. i took her with me, and wound up purchasing a darth vader costume, which she insisted on wearing everywhere, much to the amusement […]

the epic frozen extravaganza.
so. a little background first. the trip i took to florida with the girls last month was supposed to also have a trip to disney and universal tacked on. as we planned, it just wasn’t looking like the best financial decision. and the logistics of it all weren’t coming together as wonderfully as we had […]
