The Friday five

Back with a little Friday five action. 

 

1.     WORN OUT.  It’s been a whirlwind couple of weeks, the past THREE weeks Mikey has traveled for work.  Two of the weeks he was gone two nights and the other, four nights.  That makes for a  tired mama.  These were all just random events/training sessions he had to attend as his job doesn’t normally require out of town travel.  I tell ya, it sure makes me realize I NEVER want to do life without him.  He’s my person and it’s just not the same when he’s not around.


My little monkeys keeping me busy:-)




2.     BEAUFORT bound for the weekend.  We are heading to the low country after work today for some rest and relaxation.  Just kidding…who gets R&R with three little ones around?!  But, we are excited about a weekend on the boat and summer nights on the porch.


3.     I need book recommendations and nail polish color recommendations.  Anyone?  I’m not a big polish person……I try and keep my toes painted in the summer, but I’m not really one that always has a fresh pedicure….filed under things that just aren’t that important to me. But, I do want some new fun colors this summer.  I’m over my tried and trues….ideas? 


4.     I still look at the MLS for lots and houses almost daily.  It’s an obsession for me.  We can’t (tax purposes) and won’t move for at LEAST another year….but I LOVE LOVE LOVE looking at properties.  It’s a thrill for me.  I know the smartest things to do is to stay in our house at least three more years, but I can’t help but keep my eyes open for a good dealJ  And if I had all the money in the world……..some of my fav images from the interwebs



5.     My girl attended her first cheer camp this year.  She had an absolute BALL and asked if she could go back next year.  She would cheer her heart out for me at home, but of course…froze during the performance.  My little shy one, but that’s just Colls:-)

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...
