after our yard sale, we spent a couple of days getting the rest of the stuff cleared out of the house (which mostly consisted of paying our painters some extra cash to get stuff out of the house). and the following monday, we left for a local thousand trails campsite. here is the official “we […]
friends
our last days in a house.
i was going to try to categorize this blog into several different blogs. one for “prepping to move out”, one for “easter eggs”, one for “hazel pottytrains”…. but, i’m just going to glob it all together here, and be all caught up, and move on with my life… here goes… on the night we arrived […]
charleston. doctors and beaches.
ok. i’m going to attempt to get this blog up to date. starting with last monday and tuesday. in charleston. i left off with a miserable annababy. well, she wasn’t getting any better. high fever. symptoms very similar to hazel’s when she had the UTI at christmas. she was ultra miserable. we found a pediatrician […]
december stuff.
i’m trying to pretend that it’s not already mid-january as i post the happenings of december. well, the happenings that aren’t cool hikes, christmas, super sick babies, sewing, abandoning our dog, or buying an rv. so, here’s what our december looked like when those other things weren’t happening. firstly, hazel had to move out of […]
public school dropouts.
after a long few first months at school, derek and i and the kids decided that we would begin homeschooling. originally, the plan was to wait until christmas break, but the more we thought about it, we just didn’t see the point in waiting it out for no actual reason, so the tuesday before thanksgiving […]

veteran’s day at the zoo
the kids were off school on wednesday for veteran’s day, so we joined up with a few pals and had a zoo day adventure. isaac was super psyched to hang with his buddy josiah. anna wasn’t super excited about going to the zoo in the first place, but she came around. seals and sea lions. […]
