while we were in the internet abyss of sugarite canyon state park, the annababy had a birthday. i tried really hard to make it special, with no family, friends or cool things to do in the area. she didn’t seem to mind. we started with a birthday morning photoshoot, like we used to do at […]
birthday
double digits.
isaac is ten. it happened last week. we were in alabama. and he turned ten. we kicked off his big day with funfetti pancakes and bacon. for lunch, he chose chick fil a. obviously. then we dashed home and scrambled to wrap presents. hazel insisted on labeling her own. 🙂 then it was cake time. […]
asheville nc week (long post).
after spending 5 weeks at home with the grandlidboms, getting back on the road was a tough transition for our posse. the super cold and often rainy weather conditions didn’t help matters. but we managed to find a few fun things to do and survived our first week back in the camper, near lovely asheville, […]
hazel’s super early birthday party.
while we were “home”, we also managed to squeeze in a little birthday celebration for the crazelnut. her actual birthday is in a week, but we will be all alone on the road, so we had a little family party between our thanksgiving and our extra early family christmas. since i sold all of my […]
the big four oh.

a rocky start.
upon returning from our super fun aquarium adventure, Anna starting complaining about some stomach pain. we got her all snuggled up on the couch and sort of assumed it was just travel and sedentary life induced constipation. she is a terrible sick person. while she was out of commission and Hazel napped, I […]
a peppa pig themed 2nd birthday party for the crazelnut.
i can’t even believe it. it went by in a flash. last thursday, hazel turned two. she’s currently obsessed with all things peppa pig, so a peppa pig themed party was in order. first, we attempted some chalkboard birthday pics. she loved the balloons. but, overall, was NOT super cooperative. we had to switch out […]
39.
on november 16th, i entered into my fortieth year on earth. that is to say, i turned thirty nine. it was a monday, but i started the celebration on the preceding thursday. firstly, i went out with some friends to the porch. so fun. i had a foothills frostbite black ipa to start things off. […]
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 […]
