Winter blues...ready to travel!

So, it is a YUCKY day here in Cola town...and FAAAREEZING! So, in order to pretend like it is already spring and wish this cold weather away...I like to think about all the fun trips we have planned for this spring and summer. We are very fortunate here in Columbia to live so close to the beach...Mikey and I spend a LOT of time at the beach in the summer. We pretty much live in Beaufort and Hilton Head every weekend we can, and if we are stuck in Columbia...you better bet we will be enjoying ourselves on Lake Murray! Water people much? Yes!
In between our many trips to Beaufort and HHI...we are going to the HERITAGE (in HHI yes, but I have never been to the tourney!) this year. The Heritage is a golf tournament at Sea Pines Resort in Hilton Head Island, SC. It is always played the week after the Masters, it is a PARTAY! Some of the "BIG" names don't play because it is more a laid back tourney and such, but I hear it is SO fun. Mikey and I along with 14 of our closest friends rented a villa on the golf course for three nights. I'm super excited to finally go, all the girls always dress up really cute in fun dresses. Which, obviously is the most fun reason to go! =) NEW CLOTHES!



Our one year anniversary is June 13, WOW. Can't believe it will be here before we know it. Of course, we have a wedding to attend that weekend, but at least it is in Charleston! I think we will probably go to a really nice restaurant for brunch on Sunday to celebrate in downtown Charleston, but we are going on our "trip" later in August! That is the first weekend that we didn't have a wedding/shower/other trips planned. As fortunate as we are to be able to go to so many beaches in SC all the time, we wanted to go somewhere different...but still a drive. We didn't want to fly...this girl doesn't get too many days off work=( Anyways, we are going to Jekyll Island, GA . I have been there once and remember it being beautiful. I'm really excited about it because it will feel like something totally different for us and there are tons of cool things to do!



Okay, that just made me happy thinking about warmer weather! I can't wait to get out in the sunshine and be on the water! Well....urrgghhh, I take that back. I can wait. My ahem pale and 7 pound heavier body can wait. TIME FOR DISCIPLINE!

To my boys {almost two months late}

MY BOYS: A whole hand.   I can’t believe it.   The past five years have gone by at lightning speed!   You two silly, crazy, sweet, handsome boys celebrated FIVE like you do all other things- with genuine excitement and happiness in your hearts.   Y’all love life to the fullest and have the best imaginations- I could sit and listen to the two of you “play and talk” to each other ALL the live long day.   Y’all rarely fight, but when you do you make up within like 12 seconds, you boys are so different, but yet so the same.   You’ve both grown up in SO many ways and sometimes I have to blink to remind myself you are still my babies (because you are and always will be) but you both still have remnants of “babyhood” that I sure hope stays around a little longer.   It’s been a complete JOY to be your mama the past five years, as much as I want to keep you this AGE FOREVER, I know it’s not possible and am excited to watch you two grow and blossom in l...

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one n...
