{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.

  1. 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!

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 night for a date night, headed to our fav, Sal

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

These are the days.

Goodness gracious, I LOVE summer.  I talk it to death every year, but it is especially important to me during this season of life where the school year brings homework/schedules/strict bed times/extra curricular craziness- I appreciate the LAZY days of summer EVEN MORE. I've tried to be intentional about taking a half day here and there to soak up TIME with my babies.  Because Lord knows, they aren't babies for long.  (Yes, I'm referring to my 7 and 5 year olds as babies- #cantstopwontstop ) When we returned from our anniversary trip, we got back early on a Tuesday and used the rest of the day to spend quality family time together.  We took the kids to a local water park, this was all of our first time visiting- and we had a ball!   That same week, my girl and I dressed up and attended her very first company banquet for dance, too much fun!  Lake days with friends are sooooo good for me- we've so enjoyed many of them this summer
