Weekend rewind {catching up}

Since I had upload issues, I've gotten behind.  So, here I am playing catch up, not out of the norm.  I feel like October is always so crazy for us- our big state fair is in town, pumpkin patch trips, football games, so much to do!  Another non stop weekend, but so much fun.

Pictures are out of order, but oh well.  Friday night (October 12th)we took our final sunset cruise of 2018 - they had already taken the lake down a good bit due to the hurricane flooding and are doing a huge draw down this winter, so we decided to go ahead and take our boat out.  We enjoyed EVERY last second of lake season this year and are so sad to see it go.  (I'll preach it till the cows come home- we are a SUMMER family!)

Saturday morning we took the kids to a local event, Touch a Truck- it was so neat and they ALL loved it.  Every kind of tractor, firetruck, dump truck, etc.- so cool.

Saturday night Mikey and I headed out with some friends to enjoy a tailgate and football game- we had LOTS of fun, unfortunately our Gamecocks aren't too great again this year.  Sigh.....

We spent Sunday afternoon and evening at the SC state fair, one of my favorite fall traditions, but I'm saving that for it's own post- too many pics;-)

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...
