The Friday Five.

*** Spoiler alert, it's MONDAY and this never posted:(  Booo, don't know what happened, i'm not even going to worry about linking up but just wanted to still get it on here.  And in other news, my fears came true and my gamecocks LOST a big one.  Major sads.  We played like crap, our defense was non existent.  Moving on now......

The Friday Five.


1.       We had family pictures made on the beach Monday and just saw a sneak peek…can’t wait to see the rest …will have to do a FULL recap later, they are BEAUTIFUL!!!  So glad we did this.  Photographer is based out of Columbia, SC; she is amazing and was my cousin in law before her first husband/ my cousin was killed in a car accident…so, so sad.  But, she is a beautiful person and I am so glad we stay in touch.  {HATTONS PHOTOGRAPHY, for anyone local}


2.       I really can’t think about our game tomorrow.  I am going to be a NERVOUS wreck.  Fo’ real.  If it were a home game, I wouldn’t be that worried…but it’s not.  And I am.  GO COCKS!!!  I HOPE MY ASS KICKIN’ CHICKENS COME THRU FOR ME!


3.       This may be one of my favorite “mom” articles to date.  READ it and LIVE it, fellow momma’s.  AMEN.

4.       I need some new books to read….and would LOVE suggestions.  I read a LOT.  I read a whole John Grisham on Labor Day weekend…(mostly travel time), I admit I skimmed this one some.  Here’s what I’ve read lately:

a.       John Grisham: The Confession: good, typical…fast read due to suspense
b.      Gillian Flynn: Sharp Objects: WEIRD, but I read fast b/c I was intrigued
c.       Dorothea Benton Frank: The last original wife: typical of her, cute
d.      Dan Brown: Inferno: not my favorite Dan Brown, but a good read nonetheless

5.        We are having a fairly low key weekend.  NO PLANS tonight.  May take C bug to the pool…grill out, watch TV on the screened in porch since we finally hung the tv out there, yay!!!  Tomorrow is ALL ABOUT FOOTBALL, friends set to arrive around 4 for the Carolina/Georgia game, but I imagine we will be glued to game day and ESPN ALL day long.  LOVE IT.  Sunday’s plans involve church, naps, pool time and then dinner with Mimi and Uncle Trey and Aunt Brie (Mikey’s mom and bro and girlfriend).  Looking forward to it!  HAPPY FRIDAY!
Have a great weekend!

xoxo

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...
