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!

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

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...

My Pinterest inspired master bedroom makeover part one.

The BEFORE pictures. I've been itching to re-do my master bedroom for quite some time now. I am one of those people that likes to re decorate quite often...unfortunately for my bank account. Mikey's mom bought him a full queen sized bedroom suite when he graduated college, which was wonderful. It is very nice furniture and has served us well. But, I am SOOO sick of all the dark matchy-matchy look it brings. I will use this furniture again in a guest bedroom one day...but for now, it's time to retire it from my master. All of my bedding and rug I had previously...I've now had this zebra/brown/green theme for almost 4 years...so over it! Fortunately for us...my brother and SIL got a new bed...so what do we get?? Their old KING size bed!! Woohoo. I do NOT like for people to touch me when I sleep, I need my space...I've been wanting a king for so long. Even though our room isn't the biggest the king is working out okay...we aren't going to be in this h...
