the Friday five

1.       Whew, it’s been a while.  I had no “weekend rewind” post on Monday….because I took ZERO pictures last weekend.  I know it sounds ridiculous, but I was super annoyed about it.  We had the BEST weekend.  We spent Friday nightat my parents’ house celebrating my grandfather’s birthday…it’s always fun when all of the cousins get togetheršŸ˜ŠOn Saturday we had the BEST lake day…we headed out around 1:30, there were 6 kids and 7 adults and we spent the day at Sandy beach. Everyone had a blast!  HOW did I not take any pics!?! UGH.  We brought the kids home around 6:30, passed them off to two amazing babysitters and then the adults headed back out for some more fun.  It was such a good night…came off the lake at dark and cooked out with everyone, the night ended in a dance party on the porch…aren’t those always the best!?!  We were lazy Sunday morning until it was time to go to my nephew’s birthday party…at the trampoline place, so the kids LOVED it.  We ended the weekend by taking the kids to the pool for a few hours…man, I still can’t believe I captured none of this.  Lesson learned.  It was such a fun weekend with my faves.

 

2.       My girl has had a BUSY and FUN week…she started her first year of Vacation Bible School and has been going to swim lessons!  Thankful for a mama who helps out so my girl can do these things while I’m at work.  She has been LOVING VBS and is kicking butt at swim lessons!  So proud of heršŸ˜




 

 3.       Time totally snuck up on me and it just dawned on me that I’m a little more than 3 weeks out from the boys’ birthday party!  EEEKKK!!!  So much to do!  We are doing pretty much the exact same party as last year (it’s July, hot and who doesn’t want to swim!?), but with a mickey mouse theme.  Can’t wait!


4.       Took these pics of my boys last night, captures their different personalities perfectly.  Wild, fun, crazy Thomas.  And sweet, shy Graham.  I could not love them more.  And just for the record, Thomas gives his mama TONS of kisses too and can be super sweet and cuddly and Graham can be wild and silly as well…it’s just not their “norm.”


5.        We have a SUPER fun weekend ahead of us.  Three of my besties from college and me and our families have rented a lake house and are spending the weekend together!  Two of the four don’t live here so we don’t all get to see each other together very often.  We are bringing a tube for the kids, a slip and slide and so much more.  Guaranteed good time aheadJ

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

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

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
