Friends, fun and football

Just a little update about some other fun things we have been up to around the Glenn casa.  Most of my updates are about our family outings, but Mikey and I still (luckily) get to enjoy some couples only time and hang out with friends too! 

 

Thanks to some amazing grandparents and one really, really expensive babysitting bill (yikes) we were able to enjoy THREE Carolina football games this year (I say enjoy…and we sure did…although my cocks are pretty lame-o this year, oh well….).  We had no expectations going into the season of how many games we would get to go to with TWIN newborns, so I think we were both pleasantly surprised to be able to go to three and have a good time with friends (and no babies!)  Mama and daddy need some adult time every once in a while ;-)







 

Mikey and I also had a fun date night one night….had drinks at the rooftop bar downtown and then an excellent dinner at Cola’s.  Of course, we had to go somewhere we could watch the gamecocks, but it was still a fun night out with my number one man.

 

We have a good mix of doing things with other couples/without babies and doing things with all the kids… of course the nights we have the kids everything is chaotic, but we still manage to have a good time!  We spend lots of our weekend nights just cooking out at someone’s house and letting all the kids play together.  Just this past weekend we had three couples over and a total of SIX kids at our house… this is why most of these nights we come away without a picture, because it is CRAZY.  But, this is our season of life and we love it.  We are just thankful to have so many friends to play with at night! 


Had to steal these pics from ig:-). Just some examples of nights spent with friends and babies! 



 Happy hump day!

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...
