Weekend rewind

!!!!!! It was a HUGE weekend around our casa- we finally took the plunge and started painting the exterior of our house! So damn excited about this.  Painting the exterior was always the original plan, we even did a different non matching brick when we enclosed the carport bc we knew it would be painted. Well, it’s finally time for that! After getting some quotes, yikes- we decided to do it ourselves!!! Our house is only one story and 2150 sq ft- so this wasn’t something we had to call in the professionals for. We split a nice commercial grade paint sprayer with my dad, pressure washed the entire exterior and finally got to work Saturday. Y’all- it is INSANE how fast and easy it was with this sprayer. The set up was the worst part. We’ve done two coats of primer on three sides of the house - it literally took only 3/4 hours worth of painting time. Can’t wait to get this finished over the next couple of weekends!








Mikeys mom came in town Friday and we headed out on the boat and enjoyed dinner out with her Friday night. She played with the kids Saturday morning while we worked! 

We then had a baby shower AND a 40th bday celebration to attend (signs you are getting old) Saturday night with friends- it was fabulous!

Technology- helping parents with long wait times since 2008;-). 










It was yucky and rainy here all day Sunday so we did what rainy days call for and stayed in our jammies all day and watched movies!

Happy Monday!

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...
