  • **Hello Monday** {8.5.2024}

    Happy Monday friends! How was your weekend?  Like the norm, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend. Friday, we celebrated Bree turning the big 30!!! She is definitely thirty, flirty, and thriving. 😉  We left right when school was out and headed up to Blue Ridge for a short camping trip. This was a rescheduled trip from May. It’s about an hour and 3o minutes from our house, so not a bad drive.  Addison jumped out and headed to the creek right away.  After picking up some BBQ for dinner, we took a little walk around the park and ended up at the playground. …

  • **What’s up Wednesday** {7.31.2024}

    It’s the last Wednesday of the month. I am linking up with Mix and Match Mama and Sheaffer and sharing what has been going on with us lately. It’s a little food, a little family, a little what we’re wearing, a little what we’re doing, a little what we’re watching and a little bit of everything else all in one post.  Settle in ya’ll because this one is a long one. 🙂 1. What We Are Eating This Week: Sunday: We ate with Mom & Dad. She cooked chicken & rice casserole, fried okra/squash/zucchini, green beans, and candied sweet potatoes Monday: Joey’s Dad & Christy took me out for my birthday Tuesday: was…

  • **Hello Monday** {7.22.2024}

    Well it’s officially the last day of summer break. I can’t believe it’s already over. We have had a great one.  Like the norm, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend and last week. Last Monday, I got up and made me a cup of ambition in my new cup I got in Tennessee. 😉  We packed a lunch and some water wear and headed to meet up with friends at the park and splash pad. It was soooo hot, so we only stayed a couple hours. Me & Brit were melting.  Tuesday, Addison and I had an appt to get her passport.  Then,…

  • **July Weekend Trip** {7.17.2024}

    Last weekend, we headed north for one last hoorah for the summer.  Joey worked a half day on Thursday, and we left for Tennessee.  We took the camper. It’s just easier to have our own space. We got set up and headed to grab a pizza.  Addison was begging to get in the pool, so we hurried back for her to do a quick swim.  She also wanted to ride her bike and walk in the river.  We stayed at Sun Outdoors RV Resort and love the location and all the amenities for kids.  Friday morning, Joey went for an early run. This woke the dog up, so I went…

    Happy Happy Friday!! We are in Tennessee on a short getaway trip this weekend.  Like the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. Monday, we were going over to Shannon’s house, so we grabbed these cute brownies to take and share.  And then we arrived, and there were so many kids. Haha!  At one time, everyone got out to play whiffle ball, and she was glad to just float by herself. I feel ya girl.  We had so much fun playing and chatting it up.  Whitley and Shannon were so sweet and got me a treat for my birthday.  Tuesday, was my birthday. …

  • **Hello Monday** {7.8.2024}

    Hello Monday! It’s July and wow the weeks are flying by now! We only have 2 full weeks left of Summer break, and I’ll be back at school.  Like the norm, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend and last week. 😉 Well, I totally underestimated how busy I would be last Thursday and didn’t get my Friday Favorites post. So, today I’m sharing all about our week last week and our uneventful weekend. 🙂 Monday, we met Joey for lunch which is always a favorite. We don’t get to do it often, especially when school starts back.   Tuesday morning, we ran some errands.…

  • **June Beach Vacation 2024** {7.3.2024}

    Hey Friends! Happy Wednesday! I can’t believe tomorrow is July 4th! This is one of my favorite holidays.  Today, I’m sharing all the deets from our June beach vacation. Settle in.  Milo enjoyed his ride in and did well.  We arrived a little after lunch, on Father’s day. We got set up and relaxed for a bit. Then the guys decided to go eat Hamburger Joe’s, which is always a must.  A few picture with the Dads. 😉 We got back to camp and did gifts.  Then we headed down to the beach, for a walk. Milo was living his best life. He loved the sand.  We had a long…

    Hello Friends and Happy Friday! I’m going to need summer to hit the brakes. I can’t believe next week is already July.  Like the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. We have had a great week with friends.  We met up with some new friends to bowl to try to beat the heat. It’s been very hot and dry here lately.  Then we headed over to get in some arcade time.  Why do so many of the games have to be so violent? Ugh!  And we finished up our time together at lunch. We had lots of fun!  Wednesday, we met up…

  • **Hello Monday** {6.24.2024}

    Hello Friends!! I’m back! Well, sortof. 😉  Like the norm, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend snapshot of our vacation. We got home yesterday evening from a week at the beach. It was wonderful and so fun despite a little,  summer cold.  We had such a great time that I’m just sharing these few pictures. I’ll share all about our trip, in a later post.    I will be back on Wednesday for my What’s up Wednesday post. 🙂 Have a great week!  xo Thank you to Amazon and Collective Voice for sponsoring this post!

    Happy Friday Friends!! We have had a busy week full of many, many Church days.  Like the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. I made my Nanny’s pound cake for one of our meals this week and was so excited that it didn’t stick to the pan! This is a huge feat for me because it typically does and then I get very sad. So this is a win for me!  Monday, we ran by my Aunt Dot’s house and checked out their new addition. It was the pool house, but it caught on fire this past Spring and pretty much demolished…
