Happy Halloween from my mouse:-)

So, we weren't really sure how well this whole "costume" thing was going to go over this year....

Exhibit A)

I ordered a little mouse costume off of amazon and had HIGH hopes.  It was advertised as 6-12 months, but it was clearly labeled 12 months.  Well, let's just say HUGE was an understatement.  It looked like a toddler's costume on her!  And needless to say, she wasn't a big fan the first time we tried it on.....
Well, thank goodness for a quick $5 fix at my favorite alteration place!  I forgot to take the hat portion, but we just pinned it some for the real thing.  We took the hands out completely, girl loves her thumb, so I wanted her to have access if necessary;-)

So, I had my first creative Pinterest idea come to life. (Sorry if that is misleading..it wasn't MY idea, an idea I saw on pinterest and COPIED...sorry, no creative genes here!)  I sent the picture to my dad and he was SUPER excited to make a little mouse trap for our precious mouse to sit in!  I LOVE the way it turned out.  It was perfect because it contained her, she could ride all night, and unlike a stroller she could sit up and see!
Heading into BOO at the ZOO. 
LOVE, LOVE this angel.  I"ll have to do a full recap of all of our Halloween festivities later, but I couldn't resist showing off my little mouse today.  She loved it. 
Happy Halloweeners, friends!

xoxo.

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
