What has our world come to?

I'm losing faith.  *and NO, this has NOTHING to do with the current health care crap that's going.  I can't even begin to discuss my feelings on that*

So...life has been pure chaos lately.  We've established that.  HECTIC doesn't even begin to describe what all has been going on with trying to finish moving out of our old house...having to move some of our stuff into my parents house for a couple of weeks and getting everything ready for two closings tomorrow.  WHEW.

On top of that...my parents move July 14.  So we lose a LOT of help because they have to deal with their own stuff.  And my mom is keeping Collins.  Yeah...it's nuts.

We wake up this morning to news that my dad's office/shop has been broken into and RANSACKED.  WTF?  I know we aren't the first and will NOT be the last people to be broken into and we are thankful it wasn't our homes...but they completely destroyed his property. The amount of valuables taken isn't that great, but the invasion of privacy and losing a sense of safeness is what really matters. We had taken LOTS of boxes up there to store in the interim and JUST LAST NIGHT my parents had taken THREE truck loads of their own stuff up there to store.  They stole my mom's silver.  HOW RUDE. 

The cops think they know who it was...as some of my dad's belongings have already shown up in a pawn shop.  RIDICULOUS.

People in our country work way TOO hard to have something taken from them.  DO NOT TAKE WHAT IS NOT YOURS.  Is it really that hard?  It sickens me.

In happy news...we are MOVING TOMORROW!!!!  Well...kinda.  I'm having the floors re-finished/stained darker and the kitchen cabinets painted so all of that work will take place before we actually move in...but regardless, Mikey and I are both so excited about this new chapter in our lives.  We may take a boat ride tonight to celebrate:)

I absolutely cannot wait to start decorating.  Seriously y'all.  It's an obsession.

xoxo.

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...
