Weekend rewind


























I can’t believe our summer weekends are almost over….seems it was just two weeks ago we were celebrating the start of summer.  Urghh, so sad.  Anyways, we certainly enjoyed LOTS of outdoor/lake time this weekend. We have also been celebrating our ALMOST kindergartener a LOT! 

 

On Thursday, Collins and I had a lunch date for school supply shopping and a trip to Rushs, her choiceJ And then Thursday night, the boys spend the night out so Mikey and I could have a special night with JUST Collins.  We started with meet the teacher and then went to dinner by boat, again…her choice of restaurant.  I think she enjoyed it, and we won’t even go into the fact that she starts kindergarten TOMORROW!

 

Mikey was out of town with the guys Friday night, so I took the kids to the library after work and we rented a few movies.  After pizza and a movie with all of them, I put the boys to bed and let C stay up late with me watching Pippi Longstocking…she absolutely loved it!  And I let her sleep in bed with me, which may have been her favorite part;-)

 

Saturday was busy, errands, birthday parties and then it was time for LAKE DAY.  We had friends over and swam and played and ate and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.  The kids had a blast and stayed up way too late, but that’s what summers are for, right!?  I was terrible at taking pictures, urgh.

 

I spent Sunday morning cleaning the house and doing laundry while Mikey helped some friends move and then we spent the afternoon with family.  Lake time + family + swimming + jet skis+ sunset boat ride to see the purple martins = a wonderful Sunday funday. 

 

It was a good one!

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

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

These are the days.

Goodness gracious, I LOVE summer.  I talk it to death every year, but it is especially important to me during this season of life where the school year brings homework/schedules/strict bed times/extra curricular craziness- I appreciate the LAZY days of summer EVEN MORE. I've tried to be intentional about taking a half day here and there to soak up TIME with my babies.  Because Lord knows, they aren't babies for long.  (Yes, I'm referring to my 7 and 5 year olds as babies- #cantstopwontstop ) When we returned from our anniversary trip, we got back early on a Tuesday and used the rest of the day to spend quality family time together.  We took the kids to a local water park, this was all of our first time visiting- and we had a ball!   That same week, my girl and I dressed up and attended her very first company banquet for dance, too much fun!  Lake days with friends are sooooo good for me- we've so enjoyed many of them this summer
