beware. long post. isaac and john’s spring breaks overlapped a bit, right around easter weekend. so, we decided to load up and head to new york for easter in blah-tavia. we had hoped to make the drive up in one shot. we picked up ike from school at 130. which would put us there around […]
new gramma
instagrammy and such
not much to report from around here. if you follow me on instagram, this will mostly be redundant. but, there’s a few new pictures thrown in… i don’t know if i’m overlapping other posts, but i’m too lazy to look back and see… anna and lucy. anna got this little drawing board for christmas, from […]

strong museum. and strong hospital.
during most extended batavia trips, we always make an attempt to get to the strong museum of play. this time was no exception. this time, we are members of the winston-salem childrens museum, so we got in for free. and since we were practically next door, we headed over to the hospital to see uncle […]
another family visit in the books.

christmas tree assembly.
