Well hello, 2014.

So, I've been a little MIA. My loving husband just pointed that out to me as we sit on the couch and watch football. I think it's pretty cute he tunes in to the ole' blog every now and then. Anyways... BUSY doesn't even adaquately describe our lives over the past couple weeks. Holy!!! Next year I'll be taking a few days off around Christmas, there's just too much to do and too much going on not to. I'm going to recap all of our Christmas on here over the next week or so, but for now I'll start with the most recent events going on.

 

New Year's Eve 2014!!! We didn't go all out this year, we enjoyed a low key dinner with a few friends at a nice restaurant downtown and were back home to relieve our sitters by 10:-) I'm 100% okay with that. I love a good NYE's celebration or trip, but we go and do A LOT so sometimes it's nice to be low key.

 

We celebrated a birthday AND a new year with amazing food and good company, it was quite a good night. We DID stay up to watch the ball drop...because there was a really good football game going on;-)

 

On Monday night we had the pleasure of doing dinner with a big group as a surprise welcome home/belated birthday for my bestie who is currently residing in LA!! This is the first time I've seen her since she moved and we has the best night catching up. Some of the girls at dinner.

 

On Sunday, after driving 3.5 hours home from our LAST Christmas celebration in N.C., we celebrated Collins' besties birthday. It was such a fun party:-)

 

 

No long year in review post coming from me... 2013 was a fabulous year for us and we feel incredibly thankful for everything that God has provided us in this life. I cannot wait to see what 2014 has in store for us;-)

 

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday!!!

 

Xoxo

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...
