Final Day at Disney!

Our final day at Disney was our best.  We chose to sleep in on Sunday so that we could stay at the park later that night for the night time electrical parade, laser show and fireworks…which were absolutely incredible!  We got there around 11:30 Sunday and we even had time for the adults to use fastpasses  for space mountain and thunder mountain!  On Sunday, Mikey and I took Collins to lunch at Cinderalla’s castle, the BEST experience!  I am so glad we waited until Sunday to do this…for our girl. Collins needed that time to warm up :-) The first day when she met Ariel she barely even looked at her…but by the time we were through lunch she was hugging all of the princesses!  It was truly magical watching her little face light up each time a new princess came by.  This was definitely one of my favorite things we did….by far.  (My parents took the boys to the country bear jamboree and lunch while we had this special time with C). 

After lunch, it was time for Collins to ride her first roller coaster, the Barnstormer! Another fast pass, she was terrified of it Friday…but finally said she would do it on Sunday and we are so glad, because she LOVED it.  We were able to hit up the Ariel ride again Sunday, ride Winnie the Pooh and the coasters and then we concentrated on shows!   We did the move it, shake it parade which was a huge hit! We also waited in line a bit to meet Mickey Mouse, not something Collins cared about, but the boys LOVE Mickey and I feel like it’s not a trip to Disney without a picture with Mickey!!  Fortunately, they let us keep the boys out in the lobby while Mikey waited in line so they were able to get some energy out! We ate dinner in the park Sunday night…nothing fancy, but we needed to stick around until late.  We found the best seats for the electrical parade…Collins was in AWE the whole time.  Then, we scooted it back to the castle for the light show and fireworks…watching Tinkerbell fly from the castle was seriously amazing.  

Such a FANTASTICAL trip!  We absolutely hated to see it come to an end.

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...
