The Friday five.

 

1.       I really wish the weather would make up its mind.  I know I always say I am a SUMMER girl…but when it is supposed to be cold/winter I like it to be cold.  Not freezing, now.  But, just cold.  I do NOT like shopping for Christmas presents and sweating.  Just doesn’t seem right to me.  *It’s supposed to be 72 here Saturday….

 

 

2.       I am getting SO excited for little C to receive all of her presents on Christmas.  I just know she is going to LOVE them all, but probably her new kitchen the most.  She already loves to pretend play so much, it’s so darn cute.

 

 

3.       Don’t mean to complain because I am thankful to have a good job, but gee golly…I wish we had more time off around the holidays.  There are so many people out this time of year, our clients are closed/off for a while; it just seems like we could have a few more days off…going back to work the day after Christmas is just NOT cool.  Blah.  Things are going to be so busy on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day I’m not going to feel like I am getting any kind of break at all.  Pity party please. 

 

4.       All will be right the world againtoday at 1:00 as I am getting my hair done.  YIPPEEE.  Just a partial this time, but my- oh- my…does it need it?!?  I HATE being a brunette…sorry,  y’all.  Just doesn’t suit me;-)

 

 

5.       We have ZERO plans for this evening and tomorrow I plan to finish up the very LAST of my shopping (just one more present to buy) and WRAP presents all day!  *It would be a whole lot cooler if I could do that in front of a fire while sipping hot chocolate, but NO…it’s going to be 72 DEGREES outside…boo*  I enjoy a good wrapping session while watching some Christmas movie.  We are taking my two first cousins (who are 7 and 5!) and Collins to the Lights at the Zootomorrow night and I am pretty pumped.  It’s all so magical and I just know the kids will love it.  And on Sunday, we have our first family CHRISTMAS get together…can’t believe it’s already here!  My dad’s side of the family will get together and I just LOVE it because there are 10 kids 11 and under…total CHAOS but so, so fun.  Merry, Merry Christmas everyone!!!!


Sorry no fun pictures to make this post pretty!! Happy Friday!!

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...
