I used to always think that couples who were at a restaurant together and hardly talked must have the WORST relationship. So funny how things change. Mikey and I just went to lunch together today, and we talked NON stop. We both had lots going on, new things to share, etc. But, just last week we met for lunch one day, kinda last minute...and we both just read the paper most of the time and barely spoke. I mean we talked, but you know...more of a comfortable silence conversation. It makes me laugh to think I used to feel sorry for couples like that...there is something so wonderful knowing that I can go to lunch with my husband and feel 100% okay just being there with him. Sometimes there is nothing to be said, we just enjoy each others company.
I DO NOT GET the saying "little boys love their mommas." Duh. So do little girls. I think a lot of people just say this because it's a phrase so many people say without thinking about it. I don't know why it bothers me so much, but it does. It's like if someone announces they are having a boy...you get a million "awwww, little boys are the best" "little boys love their mommas". What about little girls?? They don't love their mommas?? Is it supposed to be some sort of "feel better" saying that you are having a boy and not a girl. I don't understand. The whole gender reveal thing to me has been made a little too big of a deal lately. I am SUPER EXCITED whether you are having a girl or boy, you are having a healthy baby and that's all that counts, right? I mean, now if you are going on your third child and if I know someone wants a specific sex...I can understand then , but for a first child? WHO CARES!! ALL babies are wonderful:)
I've now been to TWO high school reunions two weekends in a row. Now talking about making me feel old! We had lots of fun at both of them though, so that's what matters.
We finally have our WEEK long beach vacay nailed down. It was a little trickier this year with our work schedules, and I would have preferred to go in June (not quite as hot as July and August in SC)...August it is. We leave Friday August 19 and don't come home until Sunday August 28. WOOOOHOOO. We will be making a little tour of the SC coast. Enjoying time in Hilton Head, Beaufort, and Garden City. Lucky us! Now, pray that the weather is beautiful!!
GAMECOCK FOOTBALL is about to start back up, holy cow! We got our tickets and are ready for the first game that will take place in the Carolina Panthers stadium in Charlotte. Saturday, September 3, gonna be HOT and GLORIOUS. As much as I am excited about our upcoming football season, I am not one of these people who is ready for summer to be over. Sure, the 100+ degree days have been rough...but I love the summer and am sad it's coming to a close. Although football season is still plenty hot in SC for September anyways...once it begins, in my mind summer is officially "over." I am so glad we have one last beach trip planned to soak it all up!
Okay, that's enough for today!

ugh, i HATE when people say that too! I don't get it. Like you said, girls don't love their mamas? Drives me nuts. Did you ever decide on a Lilly dress you'd like to order? Have you seen the new Fall styles? I'm ready and waiting whenever you are ready to place an order and hopefully being beginning of season we'll have MUCH better luck this time!
ReplyDeleteHave FUN on your beach trip - such pretty areas.
