weekend rewind

Another weekend come and gone…goodness gracious, it all goes by too fast!  We had a rare family night IN on Friday and it was perfect.  I wanted to check a few things off the “December to do list” and we did that on Friday.  I picked the kids up early and we enjoyed decorating our gingerbread house…of course, G and T were more interested in eating the candy after a while, but a fun little holiday activity nonetheless.  I went with the pre-assembled kind this year, no more wrangling a stupid gingerbread house that falls apart after 30 minutes!  It was FREEZING cold Friday so the menu called for soup, grilled cheese and hot chocolate… and a little holiday baking thrown in .  It’s no wonder my pants are getting tighter, ugh!  But, seriously…  the kids of course LOVE helping with the cookies and I love eating them, it’s a win-win, right?!  ;-)  We eventually settled down for a family Christmas movie and to my surprise, the boys sat through the ENTIRE movie, I was so impressed!  We watched the Grinch, which is so cute, of course.  They all loved it.




 Saturday started out with a few errands and chores before we hit the road to North Carolina, Mikey’s sister just had TWIN BOYS!!!  Yep, that’s right.  There are now TWO sets of boy twins in the Glenn family. CRAZY.  This makes numbers 4 and 5 for her!  Goodness.  So glad we got to go visit though, can you even imagine the chaos in a couple of years!?



 

Sunday was jam packed…  we had Christmas with my dad’s side of the family during the day and Collins’ Christmas dance performance at night, so proud of my girl.  Every time she gets on stage she gets a little more confident, and that makes me so happy.  It was a late night Sunday and we were all pooped by the time we got home…but we had a wonderful, busy weekend together.


 



It's Christmas week!!

Xoxo

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...
