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

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...
