The Friday Five.


*oops, just realized this never posted on Friday, so now you get the Friday Five...on Sunday:)


The Friday Five.

1.   1.    I am slightly obsessed with my “new” chair.  I absolutely LOVE the more modern fabric on the traditional wing back.  Cannot wait for my sectional and pillows to come in.  Happy day! 


2.      2.  MIKEY IS HOME!!!  Maybe that should have been number ONEJ ha!  I don’t like to announce it to the interwebs…obvi, but I’ve been livin’ life as a single parent this past week and ME NO LIKEY.  I’ve said this before…I hate to complain when I know so many others have it harder, but I am NOT an “alone time” type person and I do NOT like being by myself.  Like, I get so bored.  I guess I could have been productive this time, and done something useful…but I just wasn’t up for it.  So I ate Lucky Charms for dinner two nights, had my parents buy us/make us dinner two nights and had a spend the night girls night last night with my lady loves.  Collins came along tooJ  And other than that, I spent about an 1.5 hours each night on the ipad….TV is terrible during the summer.  I also read Dorthea Benton Frank’s newest book this week, The Last Original Wife....all of her books are practically the same, but they are perfect quick, easy summer reads. This one was cuteJ So, needless to say…I’m stoked my hubs is HOME and does not have any business trip/classes/training planned at any time in the future.  CHEERS to that!


3.    3.   My hair needs help in the worst possible way.  I don’t even know the last time I got it highlighted…yikes.  New job is way far away from my hair girl though so we are trying to figure out an alternative…I MUST BE BLONDE ASAP. 
4.     4.  I seriously have not been shopping for myself (besides a few new work dresses, which just doesn't excite me) in FOREVER.  I’m starting to get sick of most of my clothes.  I hate when that happens.  A whole closet full of stuff and nothing appeals to me.  Guess that mean s it’s time to stock up. 
   5.   Citrus Lane review.  We got our first box in the mail yesterday and I honestly have mixed feelings.  The Melissa and doug puzzle is obviously very good….that’s a nice toy.  But, the other stuff…mehhh, not that they aren’t nice things…just don’t excite me that much.  I don’t know if it’s worth $21/month.  May give it a few more months and then decide. 

Xoxo CHEERS to the weekend, friends!

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...
