The Friday five

Welp, I just realized I never recapped our weekend, the one thing I'm normally good at with blogging. So I'll just cram it Into this post. 
1. We had a fairly low key weekend again, and it was amazing. C's school had a trunk or treat Friday night which was fun, and then some friends came over to hang out and eat dinner with us after.  We had errands and a birthday party Saturday, while Mikey stayed home and painted the stripes in the boys room, we had put it off long enough! We spent Saturday evening hanging out with friends and enjoying watching the kids play outside. Sunday was a day full of laziness, play time, snuggles and naps. A total Sunday win. 
























2. It's breaking my heart to see how "big boy" my babies are and just so fast. I love these stinkers more than life.


3. It's fiiiiinally feeling like fall around here. In an effort to take some things off my plate, i tend to "go go go" allllll the time.... and I even needed a little break recently, we skipped the fair (gasp! This was hard bc I love the fair.... but my kids never even asked about it) and we skipped the big pumpkin patch excursion with hay rides and corn mazes, etc. this year. There's just SO much going on.... and we just had to replace our entire HVAC unit, so a big womp womp to that.... so saving a few pennies when we can is nice. I found a local church with lots of pumpkins, so I'm gonna take the kids there today for some pictures.... I couldn't miss out on pictures of my babies surrounded by pumpinks;-)

4. I'm so proud of how motivated my little girl is with school, she loves homework and reading and is very "on top" of things with kindergarten. She reminds me so much of myself :-) hope that keeps up bc I can't even imagine when I have two in the same grade!!

5. And because we've had some laid back weekends, it's time for a busy one! Halloween parties, a fundraising race for dear friends, the Carolina game AND Boo at the Zoo... it's gonna be a busy one for sure!

Happy Friday!!

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...
