family beach trip. bear building day.
monday was a little drizzly and overcast, so we headed out to broadway at the beach for a little shopping and dining and walking around. and whining. 🙂 here’s the walking. some rock candy soothed the whining. we were hoping to do magicquest with isaac and build-a-bear with anna. but, once were in build-a-bear, isaac […]
family beach trip. sunday funday.
our first full day at the beach was also derek’s birthday. and hazel’s eight month birthday. are the months called birthdays? anyhoooo… here’s the big eight month old at the beach… (here’s what’s happening in her world these days: she’s pulling up. cruising. standing on her own for a bit. pushing around a walker toy.

end of summer beach trip, day one.
we are now almost fully recovered, so i can begin posting about out it… our end of summer family trip to north myrtle beach. usually, we go right after school is out. in june. but, last year, when we were selecting dates, and i was miserably pregnant and heartburny, we thought that postponing as long […]
bullhole.
two weekends ago, we made a spur of the moment decision to go on an adventure. derek had read about this place in cooleemee, called the bullhole, which sounds sort of like a bad word. *snicker*. anyhow. it’s a super short hike down to a dam, where there’s some little waterfalls and slippery rocks to […]
july 4th and our last day in batavia.

[…]

food and friends. batavia and williamsville.
we continued our western new york eating tour by hitting up the pok-a-dot for some beef on weck and gravy fries. (for newer readers of this blog, my gramma, mom and i all worked at the pok-a-dot. a lot of memories. and old friendly faces. i think it’s a national treasure. no? it should be.) […]
hazel’s first trip to batavia. part one.
i’m only now just recovering from our trip to ny. we got home nine days ago. it was super busy. and i barely slept. and never slept well. and the travels were misery. but, we had lots of fun and adventures. we loaded up and left on a friday afternoon after derek finished a test […]
no dads allowed beach trip. day six.
on our last day, we were decidedly beached out. i had no desire to march everyone out there just to have them whining the whole time and then come back in and desand all of them. so. to the pool we went. i didn’t take many pics, because i was mostly in the pool. there […]
