twenty. freaking. seven. and a throwback, sorta.

HOLY HELL. THE WORLD IS OVER. *being a bit dramatic bare with me* I am going to be TWENTY SEVEN years old a week from today. WHAT!?! Say huh? You might as well tell me I'm turning 35, that's how old I feel. Ridiculous? Maybe. I know, you don't have to remind me that 27 is still incredibly young in the whole "adult" life ride. But still. 27? May as well put a fork in her...I'm done. The majority of my friends are all turning 28 this year ( some as soon as a mere month and two weeks after me!), and they probably hate me for thinking 27 is old, oh well....serves you right! I had to put up with being the youngest way too long when it SUCKED (i.e.: being able to drive, getting into bars without worrying about the po po's , etc.) I will take full advantage of being the YOUNG one now! *Rant over, sort of.*

I feel very blessed to be where I am in life at the OLD (ahem...youngish) age of 27. I have an amazing family, a wonderful husband, the best friends a girl could ask for, I went to college, law school and now even have a *big girl* J-O-B, and own a house. Seems like I've checked most things off my "list." You know those ones you make when you are like 12 and think everything in life will happen when you snap your fingers? I guess the next big thing on this so called LIST is.......that little thing we like to call reproduction. GASP. NO WORRIES...not ready for that anytime soon!

The weird thing is, sometimes I feel like I am so young still and have all the time in the world and then other times...I sort of feel like I have so much to do in the next 6 - 7 years. Weird? Yes. Point being, I just wish I could SLOW the damn clock down every once in a while. Life flies by.

Anyways, here's a throwback of last year celebrating my birthday with my best friends! Again, what I did last year on this weekend has completely escaped my mind. On the Thursday night, September 24, THE SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS BEAT OLE MISS, who at that time was ranked number 4. So, that was fun and all. But, as for the weekend? I just can't remember... it's that OLD age I tell ya!

Okay, I lied...first up is our sweet pup Milly. We got her on my birthday last year. I love a dog now, officially, one year later...I can say I LOVE HER. Never thought I would have said that a year ago! *I still don't let her lick me and I still don't love other dogs...just Mills!*
And now here we are celebrating...gosh, just think I was a mere 25 this night, about to be 26! Feels so young now, ha!

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

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 night for a date night, headed to our fav, Sal

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
