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!

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...
