always plannin.

During the summer months (May-August) there are 18 weekends. We were out of town for 12 of them, 12! When we were in town, I had to fill our time with some big event, sometimes it was a wedding...or we would plan a big lake day with lots of friends. I C.A.N.N.O.T. not have things planned. I take one look at my calendar for the next few months and BAM, just like that I am thinking of places to go, parties to host, or things to do. I love being busy, we both love hanging out with our friends and family...but it sure does make time fly by. Of course, I love and need my lazy Sundays every now and then...but otherwise we love to constantly be on the go.

Let's take fall for example, we really aren't going that many places, Charleston a few times for weddings and football, and a super fun Chicago trip for my birthday; but other than that we are home a good bit so we can go to Carolina football games. I was looking yesterday, and realized we have two open weekends this fall with nothing to do....I immediately started looking up plane tickets to see if we could swing going to an away game. What is wrong with me? I think sometimes I feel like I have to get all this out of the way before we start having kiddos, but let's be honest...I'm sure we will still want to be on the go a little bit then too, with the help of wonderful grandparents!

This month alone, we are traveling to Beaufort twice, Charleston once and Jacksonville. Four weekends in a row. Exhausting? Yes. Would I have it any other way? No. It's like I feel like the weekend is a waste if there is nothing planned. Call me crazy.

Exciting events coming up for The Glenn family: (cause I am so sure you all care) but I am OCD about putting it out there and having it "calendared":

This weekend: Beaufort with 20 of our best friends
Labor Day weekend: half spent on the lake with friends, half in Beaufort with family
September 11: HOME football (These days entail all day drinking/tailgating and make for a loong but fun Saturday! Especially if we win!)
September 18: Charleston wedding
September 25: wedding in town
October 2: CHICAGO for my 27th birthday....another post for another day, hate getting old!
October 9: HOME football and hosting a baby shower
October 16: NOTHING PLANNED. We play Kentucky away, this is what I was looking at to see if we could fly to Lexington....too expensive for a quick trip. So then, I started thinking I should host a game watching party.
October 23: wedding in town
October 30: HALLOWEEN, HOME football, most awesome weekend ever.
November 6: Charleston; Citadel Homecoming weekend; we have a house rented with 15!!
November 13: NOTHING PLANNED. The second weekend of nothing to do in the fall, perhaps we should road trip it to Gainesville, I've never been!
November 20: HOME football.
November 27: Thanksgiving...thinking of going to the mountains with friends. We play our rival Clemson this weekend AT Clemson, not trying to hate...but we HATE going to Clemson, and yes it is because they usually beat us and it is no fun. I'm a sore loser, what can I say!?!

Okay, now that I have lost anyone who may be reading this....with all this going on...I still want to plan another trip during our "nothing planned" weekends. Have I lost it or what? I just like to be planning something all the time.

In the meantime....less than a week until we will be celebrating our COCKS!!!

This just got me really excited...I can hear 2001 playing now=)

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...
