Throw Back already and a review

I can't believe it is already Thursday, makes me pretty darn happy right now. I was out of the office for half the day yesterday, so that along with a 4 day work week = spectacularness. (Yes, I know that isn't a word, I don't care)

This weekend last year was THE weekend before our wedding. It was also the weekend of THE biggest party thrown on Lake Murray every year by our best friend David Plyler...(well not every year, this will only be the 4th...but the past three have been pretty insane.) We were planning on staying in town anyways to work on last minute wedding stuff, packing everything up, organizing for my mom to take to Beaufort that Monday. I took NO freakin pictures at Rock the Dock, don't know why, but I know we had a good time....we got back to my parents house around 7 pm that night, a long day on the water! I'm pretty sure I danced (my parents had people over), ate and then passed out on the couch. I think I needed that day though as a de-stresser before the big weekend. Not that I was really that stressed but it was nice to just relax all day long, knowing that next week was going to be so hectic.

Basically, the party is one huge cluster f*** of people, alcohol, boats, slip n slides, swimming, and music. There were TONS of people there....one of my best friends had such a good time she slept on our boat half the day! (slept/passed out, it's all the same right!?!) This year the party is July 17, we are supposed to go to Beaufort that weekend for the water festival, so not sure our plans yet, however...I will leave you with some random pictures of the party from last year, why oh why didn't I have my freakin camera?? Dang it....

We finally watched It's Complicated last night, both Mikey and I thoroughly enjoyed it, I thought it was really cute and funny. I wish they would have finished the addition before the end of the movie, I would have loved to have seen how they did it/decorated. Ha!

Also, are there a lot of Jodi Picoult fans out there? I just finished reading "Change of Heart" and it was kind of a weird one...I don't really know what to think about it. ALL of her books deal with current issues, and issues that are TOUGH to analyze/do the right thing, etc. This one was about the death penalty and organ donation, but it had some kinda weird Biblical aspects thrown in as well. It definitely wasn't my favorite of hers (that belongs to My Sister's Keeper), but it was interesting nonetheless. I have read 5 of her 18 books, I want to read them all at some point, anyone have a favorite?? (Jennifer, if you read this, COMMENT=) hehe)

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...
