giving thanks in batavia.
not so much in buffalo.

Posted on November 28, 2021December 1, 2021by sarah

when we put the older two kids in school, we knew it would mean that we would have to give up our vacation scheduling freedom, and that we would have to work around the school schedule. fortunately, for some reason, they had off the entire week of thanksgiving, so we didn’t have to cram in […]

chicago. day one.
an old house, a museum, inside out pizza.

Posted on June 10, 2021September 25, 2021by sarah

indiana dunes miscellany.

Posted on June 9, 2021September 25, 2021by sarah
