derek
leaves!
fall is in full swing and leaves are filling up our backyard. so, obviously, we made a pile for the kids to jump in. and by we, i mean derek. contemplating their strategy. as always, anna preferred to just sit in the leaves with her stuffed animals and bury herself and play pretend. isaac stomped […]
isaac and derek’s very first ever cub scout camping trip.
i wasn’t there. so i don’t know much. but here are the pics that derek took and shared. the excited camper. bidding farewell. (i was there for this). setting up. in the rain. tent-mates. i’m told isaac spent most of his spare time in the creek. and since it rained most of the weekend, it […]
dixie classic fair. twenty fourteen.
while my parents were visiting, we also decided to check out the dixie classic fair. yesterday was a beautiful day, so i kept isaac out of school, and off we went. we bought the unlimited ride bracelet for the older kids. which was a little tough, because anna is about 40″ and for a lot […]

our first attempt at (circus) camping…
ok. so, we had the bright idea to attempt to camp with the three little people. one of whom, i may have mentioned, is the WORST sleeper. sounds fun, right? derek did all of the legwork. he purchased and sorted and packed and prepared all of the supplies and sundries. (my new fave word). he […]
family beach trip. the grand finale.
the last day! friday. back out to the beach. to soak up as much sun, salt water and sand as possible. isaac quickly found a group of boys to hang with. and they were JERKS. at one point, he came back and asked if he could take off his life vest to show them that […]
fam beach trip. beach and carnival.
thursday and friday of our beach trip were beeee-autiful. so off to the beach we went. we lost hazel’s swim suit bottoms in laundry. derek suggested she just wear the rash guard with a swim diaper. i reminded him that she needed to look top notch for instagrams and blogs… so, we dusted off anna’s […]
family beach trip. no sand day.
i’m never going to finish all of these posts. this is wednesday of our trip, i think. we opted to not go to the beach. cleaning sand off three little people gets tiring. and we needed a break. so, off to the pool. then back to the room for freezie pops. girls. boy. then, we […]
family beach trip. sunday funday.
our first full day at the beach was also derek’s birthday. and hazel’s eight month birthday. are the months called birthdays? anyhoooo… here’s the big eight month old at the beach… (here’s what’s happening in her world these days: she’s pulling up. cruising. standing on her own for a bit. pushing around a walker toy.
