The Friday Five.

*** Spoiler alert, it's MONDAY and this never posted:(  Booo, don't know what happened, i'm not even going to worry about linking up but just wanted to still get it on here.  And in other news, my fears came true and my gamecocks LOST a big one.  Major sads.  We played like crap, our defense was non existent.  Moving on now......

The Friday Five.


1.       We had family pictures made on the beach Monday and just saw a sneak peek…can’t wait to see the rest …will have to do a FULL recap later, they are BEAUTIFUL!!!  So glad we did this.  Photographer is based out of Columbia, SC; she is amazing and was my cousin in law before her first husband/ my cousin was killed in a car accident…so, so sad.  But, she is a beautiful person and I am so glad we stay in touch.  {HATTONS PHOTOGRAPHY, for anyone local}


2.       I really can’t think about our game tomorrow.  I am going to be a NERVOUS wreck.  Fo’ real.  If it were a home game, I wouldn’t be that worried…but it’s not.  And I am.  GO COCKS!!!  I HOPE MY ASS KICKIN’ CHICKENS COME THRU FOR ME!


3.       This may be one of my favorite “mom” articles to date.  READ it and LIVE it, fellow momma’s.  AMEN.

4.       I need some new books to read….and would LOVE suggestions.  I read a LOT.  I read a whole John Grisham on Labor Day weekend…(mostly travel time), I admit I skimmed this one some.  Here’s what I’ve read lately:

a.       John Grisham: The Confession: good, typical…fast read due to suspense
b.      Gillian Flynn: Sharp Objects: WEIRD, but I read fast b/c I was intrigued
c.       Dorothea Benton Frank: The last original wife: typical of her, cute
d.      Dan Brown: Inferno: not my favorite Dan Brown, but a good read nonetheless

5.        We are having a fairly low key weekend.  NO PLANS tonight.  May take C bug to the pool…grill out, watch TV on the screened in porch since we finally hung the tv out there, yay!!!  Tomorrow is ALL ABOUT FOOTBALL, friends set to arrive around 4 for the Carolina/Georgia game, but I imagine we will be glued to game day and ESPN ALL day long.  LOVE IT.  Sunday’s plans involve church, naps, pool time and then dinner with Mimi and Uncle Trey and Aunt Brie (Mikey’s mom and bro and girlfriend).  Looking forward to it!  HAPPY FRIDAY!
Have a great weekend!

xoxo

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
