{our weekend}

We FROZE our hineys off Friday night as we watched our GAMECOCKS beat the TIGERS at HOME, it was AWESOME.  We LOVE baseball season….baseball is much more relaxed than football for me and I don’t mind if we have to leave a game early since tickets aren’t nearly as pricey.   Collins went with us and did SO GREAT.  She sat at the game with us for THREE hours and had a blast.  I had her decked out in four layers…and we had tons of blankets to keep us warm.  I think she was probably the least cold out of all of us though b/c she kept on moving around so much.  We didn’t even have to take her to the playground at the stadium…she sat in my mom’s lap about half the game and the rest bounced around and walked in front of us.  I was shocked.  We ended up leaving at 10…it was a LONG game, and still had two innings, but we were cold.  I am SO proud of my Gamecocks for SWEEPING the Tigers this year, feels OH SO GOOD.



 

We had NO plans on Saturday.  NONE. We slept late, love that my little booger will sleep till 9:15 when she is up late the night before.  We played, enjoyed the sunshine, and watched more Gamecock baseball (at home) while C took a three hour nap.  Mikey enlisted some help and went and got Collins’ outdoor play set we bought for her birthday.  We bought one from a neighbor who is moving (those things are EXPENSIVE!) but it is still in great shape and perfect for what we want.  We went on a walk after the baseball game, then to the grocery store…. (at 6:30 on a Saturday night, we are so WILD, I tell ya!) and then Mikey and I watched Downton Abbey for a few hours when Collins went to bed.  It was a good day;)

 

We slept late again Sunday….I guess C was still catching up from Friday night….gosh I am going to be IN FOR IT when the twins come….sleeping till 9 on the weekends is  HEAVEN.  Then it was time for church.  It was BEAUTIFUL outside…we took Collins to my parents’ house after church b/c Mikey and I were attending a benefit for one of our good friend’s dad who has been diagnosed with brain cancer, cancer BLOWS by the way.  But, the benefit was a HUGE success and it was a GORGEOUS day for everyone to be outside.  We grilled out with my parentsSunday night and listened to the GAMECOCKS beat the TIGERS one last time while sitting outside…it was so nice.  A little more Downton Abbey ended our weekend quite nicely.

    I just started watching Downton Abbey for the first time last week. It took a few episodes for me to get into it, but I'm starting to really enjoy it!

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...
