{our weekend}

This weekend was a bit different for us.  As in, it was a summer weekend and we didn’t have ANYTHING going on.  Crazy, right??

Friday night we enjoyed our date night…although The Great Gatsby wasn’t so “great” for me.  It was definitely good, but I wasn’t a fan of the production and really felt as if it could have been better.  It was still nice to go to a late dinner/relax/have drinks and talk with the hubby and then enjoy a movie together.

As much as I wanted to go on the lake Saturday, the rain would NOT allow that, which ended up being kinda nice as we were SUPER productive around the house.  It’s hard for me to “waste” a perfectly good Saturday doing house chores, but when the weather is crappy it makes it A-OKAY.  Mikey and I tore up our existing deck, major demolition going on… (Okay, maybe not major…but still fun) and removed all of the huge brick pavers from the patio.  Our new deck is going in this coming weekend and we are laying sod where the existing patio was…it just took up too much good space in our yard.  And, it was ugly.  So, there’s that.   We went over to our friend’s house for a laid back dinner and hang out.  Laid back and productive…not our typical Saturday in the summer…but I’ll take it, for now:-)


Deck demolition progress


Sunday called for sleeping in, lounging on the couch with C before church…then lunch, naps, and pool time for about 20 minutes before we got a HUGE downpour.  It poured right after church, was beautiful while Collins was napping (of course), took her to the pool when she woke up and it started pouring again soon after.  UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.  Of course like 30 minutes later it was beautiful again…but we just stayed in our PS’s the rest of the day and spend time hanging out.  I also rented Les Mis last night and couldn’t last 30 minutes…I was bored to tears.  Anyone else?  I am not the biggest musical lover but I enjoy a good one, I had a hard time understanding what they were saying….oh well…..

A little Sunday morning bed head....

Our twenty minutes at the pool. 



 

Cheers to another Monday!

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...
