Family vacay 2013: part 1

Family Vacation 2013: Recap part 1

Similar to last year, we had a LONG, beautiful NINE day vacation in Beaufort this year that was the perfect mix of family and FUN.  We started off our vacation with just Mikey and I heading down early to participate in some super fun wedding festivities.  Colls stayed back at home with Lolly and Granddaddy while Mikey and I enjoyed two nights of adult time.  We rented a house with 6 others in Port Royal (where the wedding was) (which is also about 15 minutes away from our house in Beaufort, but my Uncle had given the house to friends that weekend so we found other accommodations.)  The house in Port Royal was PERFECT for our group, only two blocks away from the reception.  We started off Friday night at the rehearsal dinner, which was perfectly laid back and relaxed with breathtaking views of the intracoastal water.  We all (myself included) had a little TOO much fun Friday night and that 2:00 Catholic wedding ceremony on Saturday came a weee bit early;-)






Everything about Saturday was wonderful.  The band was AMAZING…as was the dancing.  It was so fun being able to go back out in downtown Beaufort on Friday and Saturday night…we don’t get downtown very often at night, so it’s always good times when we do.  (and reminded me a lot of going out after our wedding!)  



Mikey and I were up early Sunday morning to go meet my awesome mama so we could go get our little peanut for the start of our FAMILY VACATION week.  My mom met us halfway between Beaufort and Columbia, how awesome is she??  Colls was SO excited to see us!  My best friend Maggie stayed with us Sunday night and we enjoyed a few hours on the beach before we got pizzas and had a chilled out  night at home.  It was perfect.

Stay tuned for Part 2… I know, I know…you can’t stand the wait;-)

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...

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...

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...
