Throw Back and some new kicks!

Our local boutique that carries Tory Burch is having a MEGA sale...I scored these two pairs of shoes for 90% off!! Yipppeeee=) Happy girl.
I got these in red...something different!
Once again, I am doing two weeks together on my throw back...this blogging stuff can be time consuming and I have not had a lot lately! *Which I am thankful for because the day always goes by so much faster when I am slammed busy*

July 23...one of my favorite persons ever has a birthday=) Last year, we all gathered at her boyfriend's house on Lake Wateree to celebrate, and celebrate we did! It was a super fun day filled with floating in the lake for hours....and playing for survivor style flip cup for hours. If you have never played flip cup "survivor style" WARNING: do not start now. It is ADDICTIVE. It is very competitive, but oh lawdy....you will be feelin it for real the next day. Every time your side loses you have to "vote" someone off the island until it could be 1 person vs. say 5 on the other team...the better you are, the more you drink. Ahem...I've had lots of nights where I was (unfortunately for me the next day) VERY good. Anyways, as usual when my friends get together...it was a wild night with some wild memories. I hope it was a birthday the birthday girl will never forget. I know I won't!

We were team "lifecoats," don't ask...I don't remember how this came about.
The birthday girl and her lover were the remaining two after one game, too funny! She whipped his butt!

Mikey and me=)
Some of my favorite girls.

Well the next weekend, we headed down to Sea Island, GA for a bachelorette party! We were very fortunate that the bride's sister has family who had a house there, so we got to stay for free! It was a wonderful weekend, my first time to Sea Island since I was a little girl....what a beautiful place, if you ever get the chance...GO. It is so different from most coastal communities in our region, it has more of an "old hollywood" circa 1920's feel...very cool. We went and had drinks at the famous Cloister hotel, gaaaawgeous.

The beautiful bachelorette!
Dance time!
Some of the girls at The Cloister.
Me sitting in the same seat G.W. sat in for the 2004 Summit that was held on Sea Island, LOVE me some GW! Yep, a big ole Republican dork!
We went to the Beach Club during the day to hang out by the pool, it seriously is nicer/just as nice as any resort in the Caribbean, etc. and only 3.5 hours from me!
Okay, tootles....have a great day!

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...
