it’s been a bit crazy around here for the last little bit. (end of school, new computer and i’m playing a giant game of bloggy catchup. we head to the beach saturday, and i will obviously have about 40 things to blog about that, so hopefully i’ll be all caught up before then. first up. […]
derek
bethabara park adventures.
the weather on memorial day weekend was fantastic, so on saturday, i dragged derek and the kids to historic bethabara park for some exploring and climbing and frolicking. and a quick wendy’s picnic. i’m not even going to caption these pics. that’s how lazy i am.
lidbom family camping adventures. round 2.
last fall, we attempted a family camping trip. (in a sweet circus tent). it was a little tough with a tiny, semi-mobile, terrible sleeping hazel, but we still had a lot of fun, so we decided it was time to give it another go. this time, derek bought a super easy tent to set up […]
february in 35 pictures.
it seems i’m getting worse and worse at consistent blogging, despite my attempts to get better and better at consistent blogging. it’s been a rather crazy month. i kicked it off by returning from batavia for my uncle ray’s funeral. i had a nice day of recovering and settling back in, but awoke in the […]
updating the kids bathroom.
we bought this house ten years ago. and it was previously owned by a couple a wee bit older than us. and there was a lot of very 1990’s-ish wallpaper. we immediately de-wallpapered the kitchen and painted it royal blue (and you see it in approximately 78% of my photos). we meant to get to […]
a quilt for derek.
i’ve never made a quilt for derek. poor neglected husband. so this year, for christmas, i put an end to the streak. and made him this: when i saw the modern neutrals at sewingly yours, i knew they would make a perfect manly quilt. the small prints were perfect for a scrappy trip along. so […]
christmas day. twenty fourteen.
finally. christmas day is here. (i actually think i took this pic christmas eve, but whatevs). the tree survived. if you’ll note, there’s no ornaments in the bottom third and the lights and garland are slightly askew. and the presents are ready to go… the kids did a great job of not coming down at […]
belated christmas season post.
man oh man, am i ever behind on blogging. i was going to make one giant post with all that’s happened since december 15th or so. but after i selected 32 pictures and was only at christmas day, i decided to break it up into chunks. the first installment covers the time between my last […]
lewisville christmas parade.
yesterday was the lewisville christmas parade. we didn’t get to go last year because of hazel and the business of her being born and all newborn and such. but we’ve gone in most of the years past. this year. isaac was in it, with his boy scout pack. so fun. the weather was glorious and […]
mountain getaway.
last weekend, we made a semi-spontaneous trip to the mountains for a little family getaway. we started it out by turning hazel’s seat around. she’s a few days shy of one, but not if you count from her due date. actually, i think the law might be two years old now. which is ridiculous. anyhooo… […]
