family
may miscellany. a wee bit of april, too.
well. i’m up to the end of may with my blogging catchup. now it’s time for that one post that details the random bits of our life that don’t fit into a post. they aren’t adventures. they aren’t tales of new dogs or new houses or quilts or birthdays. they are regular life things, mostly. […]
the annababy is nine.
and then. somehow. she was nine. the annababy, obviously no longer a baby, is turning into quite an interesting and fun kiddo. she’s adventurous, curious, thoughtful, kind, honest, smart, creative, and goofy. she loves to draw and write and read and dance and play music. she hates math and compulsory school. she loves all animals […]
a kitten and baby themed trip to batavia.

ws/nc. november.
well. we are home. there’s as much exciting stuff to post about, so i’m back to that old thing where i can cram a month’s worth of stuff into one boring post. at least i had a birthday and there was a thanksgiving in november, so there’s some bonus material that might not take place […]
heber city chronicles.
when i left off, i had just taken the kids on a little side trip to great basin national park. while we were having adventures, and driving to and from that park, derek moved along down the highway to the nevada border, which is where we met up with him for a night. the town […]
a black and white (and orange) quilt for the nephew to be.
my baby brother and his girlfriend surprised the whole family when they announced they were having a baby a few months back. she had expressed interest in my most recent quilt, so i knew this was the perfect opportunity to make her (or the baby, whatever) a quilt. when they found out it was a […]
