weeeknd rewind

Weekends this time of year are cray, and last weekend was no exception. 


We started off by going to get our tree Thursday night. 




 

 I enjoyed my TWELTH annual ZTA girl’s Christmas party Friday night and what a treat that was.   ALL of us don’t get to get together all that often and so it’s always super fun when we do… and this year was no different.  My bestie hosted in Rock Hill at her gorgeous house… we eat, dance, talk, laugh and stay up WAY too late (for 33 year old mamas) , but it sure is fun!!  




 


I was struggling a bit Saturday morning…but we had a jam packed day of course.  Colls had a birthday party to attend and then we left for Charleston!  Mikey wanted to go to the Citadel football game b/c it was the first time they had hosted a playoff game in a LONG time….so we packed up and off we went.  It was pretty chilly, but the kids did awesome.  A bounce house occupied them for most of “tailgate” and they did really good during the actual game.  I was impressed.  We left with about 10 minutes left in the game, because we were driving back home that night!  Mikey enjoyed seeing some friends and the kids loved “oohing and ahhhing” over the “castle” where daddy went to school.  A fun little Saturday outing.  



 

 But, Sunday… oh Sunday.  I didn’t stop.  Cleaning/organizing/decorating… you name it.  We hosted my family for my brother’s birthday dinner Sunday night so I was a mad woman all day getting stuff done.  It’s such a good feeling though when the house is clean and decorated for Christmas!  We enjoyed another chaotic family dinner, it’s always SO loud when my family gets together ;-)  I can’t believe it’s already Wednesday…  another weekend will be here before we know it.


Our elf returned last week:-). He "dropped" off the elf on the shelf movie in our mailbox the night before he came back. My kids are just SUPER excited that he moves each day... no need to go Pinterest crazy yet .


Happy hump day!

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 n...

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...
