Friday For lunch on Friday, I met 2 friends at Pomegranate on Main. Pomegranate is one of my all-time favorite restaurants in Greenville, but I had never been for lunch, and unfortunately had to take the boys to swim lessons afterwards, so had to skip out on the oh so delicious Pomegranate Margarita. I was really tempted to try one…
July 4th is one of my favorite holidays (next to Christmas of course!). What is there not to love about juicy watermelon, a good ole’ American cookout, water skiing, boat rides, drinking on the beach, and most of all, FIREWORKS?!?! I have always had a huge LOVE and fascination for fireworks. There is just something so magical about them. My…
We had a fun, fun weekend celebrating our “Daddy”! Friday night we grabbed a delicious burger from the Chuck Truck (parked at Community Tap every Friday). There is a reason why they are called the “Chuck Truck”, they serve a dang good burger. My favorite is the Caprese Burger and Nelson usually goes with the Black and Blue or the…
This trip to St. Maarten was completely last minute. We were offered use of a timeshare and literally bought our plane tickets about 3 weeks before the trip. However, even with procrastination, our trip went very smooth! Luckily, St. Maarten is an easy 3.5 hour direct flight from Charlotte, so pretty easy to get to, and busy season ended in…
The Race So, those of you that read my post on Friday or follow me on any social media outlet may know that I ran a 1/2 marathon this weekend, so that pretty much sums up our weekend. I completed the 1/2 and now hours after the finish line, I can say that I did enjoy it, but I might…
This post is simply dedicated to all the mommas out there. The mommas with children here on Earth and those with children in Heaven, the women who so long to be mommas one day, the expecting mommas, and the friends who have lost their mommas- this is to ALL the loving mommas. If you have sacrificed yourself in any way…
A recap of the rest of our fun weekend. A Saturday full of celebrating a special birthday. And a Sunday of church and brunch…yet again. Our weekends seem to be pretty predictable lately, but I love it. Saturday: The Puppy Pawty Saturday afternoon, one of our best friend’s had their 1st birthday PAWTY with a sweet puppy theme. The birthday boy,…
Confession…I was totally one of those girls that rolled their eyes at moms that “over-posted” pictures of their kids on social media and was baffled by the comment, “they just grow up so fast”. I always thought, “well yeah, just like us, they grow, such is life”. I know this makes me sound so cruel…haha, but I didn’t mean it in…
Good Friday Kids were out of school on Friday, so my sister, Meredith, and I took the older kiddos down to Atlanta to see our other sister, Dori, and take a trip to the Aquarium. I have never been to the GA Aquarium, so honestly this was a treat for me too! The place was a zoo, considering it was…
When I started this blog, I never imagined I would write a post on “potty training”, but just like clothes or food or fitness, when I find something good, or something that works, I want to share it! By NO means am I an expert on this subject or any parenting for that matter, so take it as simply encouragement…
