when we parted ways with the grandlidboms, they headed back to nc, and we made our way to arizona. our first stop was in yuma, just across the border. we had a quick little stay in the front yard of a random strangers house, who we found via boondockerswelcome.com. (basically, it’s a subscription service that […]

soccer debut
it’s the moment i’ve waited for all my life. well, since my sports “career” ended. in 1999. ouch. isaac had his first soccer practice last night. it’s not even really practice. and they don’t actually play games. it’s really just a bunch of soccer fun with secret skill development worked in. he had a great […]
winston-salem dash game.
the kernel and some friends: isaac, modeling the dangerously high balcony and it’s accompanying dangerously small guard rail: isaac and william are pals: and pals sneak cotton candy to each other when moms aren’t looking: anna’s preferred mode of transport:
Our First WS Dash Game
last night, we packed up and drove off to downtown winston-salem, to take in our first dash game at the new stadium. we had lots of fun… i think we were in the ninth row. isaac loves sprite. or any pop for that matter. watching intently. when the excitement of class a baseball wore off […]

first baseball game
we took isaac to his first baseball game last night, along with some other youth group leaders and students. well, student. we had high hopes that we could make it the length of the game for the fireworks. we also had realistic expectations that it might be a complete disaster. it was somewhere in between. […]
Tom Brady Curse
ok, so remember all the media attention given to tom brady when he showed up at his girlfriend’s house [incidentally, not the mother of his child], wearing a boot? although, i’m pretty sure we didn’t see each other during this time in superbowl history, jenn lawson and myself separately made fun of tom brady. i […]
one year ago today…
….was the last day of freedom that i would know. (he turns one tomorrow.) there’s not much to report from the lidbom camp these days. isaac is currently lying in bed, alternating crying, playing, and yelling momomomom. he’s really trying hard not to sleep. perhaps he’s having a throwback to the olden days of little […]
