family beach trip, 2015 (part 2)
our second day at the beach began slowly. we worked a little on a puzzle (and hazel worked on wrecking it). had a lazy breakfast. and eventually got ready for the beach… at the beach, i made a feeble attempt at a family picture. hazel was not super agreeable. the boy. the girl. the toddler. […]
myrtle beach-ish, 2015 (part 1).
last week was our annual family trip to north myrtle beach. we left saturday mid-morning and began the four hour road trip to our salty and sandy destination. while i have been doing a lot of traveling this year, derek has not. this was his first real vacation. and it was nice to have a […]
spontaneous mountain getaway.
so. derek’s parents and sister’s family and sister’s husband’s parents were in the mountains. i was hoping to maybe take the three lid kids up for a day trip, but when we mentioned it, derek’s dad swooped into action and found us a super cheap place to stay for a few days. (and he footed […]

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 […]
