The Friday Five.



Linking up today with these fun ladies. 

1. It's  birthday weekend!!! Woohoo. We actually started the festivities last night. My actual birthday is on Monday... And who wants to celebrate on a Monday? Not me. So we went out to dinner with our big group of friends last night and it was fab. So fab that my BFF drove all the way from ATLANTA to surprise me. I know... She's the bomb. I missed my very new mommy friends last night but am so thankful for all those that came to celebrate.

My surprise visitor!
Or big group: 

The girls: 

2. Mikey and I are off to Beaufort this weekend, ALONE. Woah. Originally we were supposed to take his family but he surprised me and thought it would be nice to have a weekend away with just the two of us for my birthday. So this girl is pumped about sleeping late and doing whatever in the world we please!!!!

3. My girl is getting more entertaining by the day. My heart could literally explode in a million pieces with the overwhelming amount of love I have for her. She recently started calling me mommy instead of mama and I just want to bottle up that precious little voice and keep it forever. Our absolute favorite thing to do together right now is dance!! Little C can break it down. Anytime she hears music she starts dancing. God love her. And let me note how thankful I am I get to spend lunch with her sometimes. I always get over there at least once during this week... But since I won't see her this weekend... Baby girl got two visits from mommy this week:-)


4.  I'm finaaaaaaaly, reluctantly, but finally getting on board with all things "fall." But, NOT anything PSL. Gross. I'm gonna try and lay out a bit this weekend but after that I think I'll really get into fall mode. I will NOT buy one single mum this year however. I refuse. They die way too fast. So now the hunt is on for OTHER beautiful fall plants. 

5. So excited a few of my besties went in together and got me this gorgeous Tory burch bracelet for my birthday!! I just love it.

Havea great weekend, friends!!!

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...
