Weekend rewind

Y’all know I like to stay busy, right?! Well, this weekend was no exception- we didn’t stop!

Last soccer shots session- such a fun little program. We will probably switch to traditional rec league next year but this was perfect for three year olds. 


We hosted several families for dinner and craziness Friday night. It was one of those nights that I hope my kids always remember us having. I took no pictures, my house was a disaster zone by the end, and the night ended with the dad’s trying to do back bends like their daughters. 9 big kids and 2 babies and they pretty much got to live their best life (do whatever they wanted) all night!

One of the girls spent the night and this was my sweet morning view - watching them feed the ducks. The girls were swimming by 9am!

C spent some time on the boat with a friend and we were supposed to go meet up, but our boat battery was dead. Womp womp- so I got some QT with my boys, and we enjoyed a couple hours swimming and playing together. 

We hosted my moms family Saturday afternoon/evening for my grandfathers 89th bday!

Sunday morning was spent working around the house and running errands. After (ALL 3) kids napped- we headed to a make a wish foundation party for our friend, Leo. Leo has type 1 SMA and his wish was a barn with animals- and thats just what he got! My dad built the barn so that was even more special as we’ve known each other our whole lives. 

Sunday afternoon and the fun still isn’t stopping! We had a little Sunday funday planned with my college group and it was perfection. We sat around and caught up while watching the kids play. The best. Sure was a fun way to end the weekend.

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...

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...

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...
