no dads atlantic beach trip. days two and three.
after selecting all the pics for this post, it appears we didn’t go to the beach at all for days two and three. strange. anyhooo… here’s what we DID do. we started off with a slow morning, because hazel learned that she can climb out of her pack and play and we got a very […]
no dads atlantic beach trip. day one.
first. an apology. i’m about to play a serious game of blog catchup. we went to the beach a month ago. then we came home for a week and i attempted to blog, but had a hard time with the photos (iphoto vs. photos) on my brand new computer. so i scrapped it. then we […]
sunshiny florida trip. part 2.
on our third day in florida, we laid pretty low. we skipped the beach and instead headed to the pool. i took exactly zero pictures at the pool. because of having to hold so many non-swimmers and such. then, hazel caught up on some MUCH needed sleep and we just lounged around the trailer park. […]
sunshiny florida trip. part 1.
ok. i’m skipping around. we actually just got back from this trip, so this isn’t belated. well, technically it is. but, by my dismal standards, it’s super early. some background. in october, my gramma died. (that post is here.) anyhoo. like with my gramps, a memorial service was planned for a later date, so that […]
the sad trip home.

mountain getaway.
last weekend, we made a semi-spontaneous trip to the mountains for a little family getaway. we started it out by turning hazel’s seat around. she’s a few days shy of one, but not if you count from her due date. actually, i think the law might be two years old now. which is ridiculous. anyhooo… […]
birthday weekend at the beach. (sewing).
a few weekends ago, i went with three quilty friends to a quilting retreat, hosted by the triangle modern quilt guild. at the beach. bonus info: it was also my birthday weekend. on the way down, we stopped at two quilt shops in chapel hill and raleigh. upon arrival at the (super fancy pants) hotel, […]
family beach trip. the grand finale.
the last day! friday. back out to the beach. to soak up as much sun, salt water and sand as possible. isaac quickly found a group of boys to hang with. and they were JERKS. at one point, he came back and asked if he could take off his life vest to show them that […]
