rhabdomyolysis.
it’s been a crazy couple of weeks around here. two weeks ago, today, i went to crossfit for the first time. i was hoping to get my butt back in gear and stop being fat. the workout was mostly pullups (i got to do wussy pullups using rings), rowing, and squats. i could tell i […]

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 […]

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.
