Day 16/1 year/where the hell i've been

WOW.

I have now been officially blogging for ONE year! Goodness gracious, time FLIES. Fo real.

I have mixed feelings about it being November 18 already. Although it is one of my best friends birthdays today, and we have a wonderful night planned of going to see the city Christmas tree get lit, wine tastings, and our favorite restaurant for dinner...I CANNOT BELIEVE IT IS ALREADY FREAKING NOVEMBER 18. Get my drift? I know I talk about this all the time...but seriously. I don't even have kids yet...but I SWEAR time goes so quickly and sometimes I don't like it. In fact, sometimes, it really freaks me out and gives me anxiety. Like my whole life is gonna be gone in the blink of an eye or something. But, that craziness shall be left for another day. I am happy about the holidays approaching in a way, but not quite ready for Christmas music quite yet.

It's such a crazy time of year, I feel like I can barely get my breath lately. We have so much going on and have been out of town a lot. I am so thankful to be staying in town this weekend to watch our SEC EAST Champion Gamecocks in their last home game of the season and then to have two days off next week. I hope to get in some mayjah relaxation time.

A couple of random thoughts...I got the faux fur vest I ordered from Nordstrom yesterday, but I don't like it! Gasp! I NEED A NEW ONE STAT! I just can't find one that I love the color, length, etc. And...at times like this I wish TONS of people read my blog so I could get opinions (not that I don't appreciate those of you that do)...so for anyone that does see this and has one PASS IT ON. Silk shirts: I feel like I have to dry clean mine after EVERY wear and it pisses me off. Any other suggestions? I wear them to work a good bit with suits and stuff...but (sorry if this is TMI or gross) they always seem to get deodorant and/or sweat stains on them and need to be dry cleaned. It's so frustrating....I just don't know what to do?

I know, I know...enough with the super important problems and on to DREAM HOUSES!

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 16: Dream Houses=)

I absolutely LOVE the style of "low country" houses here in SC. There is a certain style house that is quite popular in Charleston, Beaufort and the likes that I just adore. I don't really know the name for it...but they are all beautiful. Just take a minute and see the beauty:

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...
