Carolina/Clemson Day!

On Saturday November 27...the CAROLINA GAMECOCKS took on the clemsux tigers. *hehe* Anyways...I don't do Clemson. In other words...I hate going up there. Yes, more than likely it is b/c I have BAD memories of them beating us more often than not up there...and let's be honest who really likes all that damn orange. Yuck. Seriously though...Clemson does have a beautiful campus, but if you don't know anyone that lives there it is hard to go up for a game unless you drive home that same night...there aren't a whole ton of hotels. With this being a night game, it just didn't seem feasible to make the trip to Clemson, which it never really does anymore...we always find some place to throw a big party now when we play AT Clemson. It is just SO much easier. This year, our wonderful friends Jennifer and Jeb, invited us to Jeb's cabin at Lake Wateree. We had 17 people crammed in, *not ONE Clemson fan might I add, which is rare in this small state.* We had an absolute friggin blast. It was perfect, and it sure didn't hurt that Carolina whipped up on them Tigers this year, making it TWO times in a row now! Yay!

We all headed up there early afternoon to begin our day of football. It was the perfect amount of time for all of us girls to get all of our gabbing in before the BIG game started. We had food galore, and Jennifer cooked us some amazing chili for dinner. It really was a wonderful way to end the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

The lake at sunset was so pretty!
Game time!
Boys, it was freezing!
ALL the girls, go cocks!
Jamie (far left) looks like he is trying to hug it out with Mikey, ha. *PS... all those orange cups, survivor flip cup!!! Girls won! Holla!
...and his shirt said "Forget the rock, rub the cock." Highly inappropriate? Yes. Wildly hilarious? Yes. (Clemson rubs "howards rock" a rock before they run down the hill every game.) **Mikey did NOT purchase this shirt, it was given to him!
Such a fun night of celebrating my GAMECOCKS with my favorite people!

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...
