A Cweepy Visit



My sweet friend and roomie from college, Sally, came to visit a couple of weekends ago. Since I am so far behind on blogging, I am just getting to putting the pictures up.

Sal and I began calling each other "cweeps" during our time living together our senior year of college in Grannies. This was mainly because I would wake up in the morning and Sally would be going through my drawers trying to steal something to wear, or I would go upstairs and she would be sitting in the closet...just creepy things that would make me gasp. We then had a fun activity where we liked to change the letter "r" in words to the letter "w" because of a book Sally read to her first graders. Hence the word "cweep". It has really stuck too and now that is what we mainly call one another.

It was so sweet of Sal to drive to see Becca and myself. She lives in Atlanta but drove to Charleston to see us. I took a pic of her in the driver's seat for your viewing pleasure...



We hung out and ate on Thursday when Sally got here. Friday, we went to the beach and then over to Becca's for dinner. Addie and Craig were there for the party too! The best part of the night were molten lava cakes that we made. Here are some pictures of the night's activities:











Don't you just love this jowling picture? So attractive...

The next day, we all went to 3 little birds and then to the beach. After the beach, we decided it would be fun to have a little girl's night in - you know, eating pizza and watching movies. It was the best!


Well, of course our ole dog Scout threw a little wrench in the plans by getting a stomach virus. Poor thing never catches a break. Here is the little guy sulking in the kitchen...


It was so sad to tell Sal "goodbye", but we had a wonderful reunion weekend like old times. It was so much fun. Thanks for visiting us in Charleston, cweep! We love you!


And, last but not least, I thought you would love to see a pic of the cweep in action. This is the classic "cweep" picture that we still enjoy posing for today. A tribute to cweeps everywhere....

On Faith and Suffering

Suffering....it is not an easy thing to bear up under. I feel that as life goes on, I am seeing more and more suffering around me. I have recently been through a tough season in my life. In the midst of difficult circumstances, it has caused me to look to God and question at times. I think sometimes in the Christian life, we are told, “Don’t question. Just believe. God is good all the time.” This, of course, is true but I think there is true beauty in the wrestling. In the coming out on the other side having a deeper faith because of where God has taken you on the journey. I have recently been reading in Hebrews and like God does, He somehow lined up the Scriptures and where I was reading to answer some of my questions right in the face. Questions like... “Why do people who love you have to suffer?” “I understand suffering is for your glory, but we already love you and are about your glory so do we have to go through it?” “Are you really big enough? Good? Faithful?” “Is it ...

We cannot wait to meet him and Ryan thinks that with the zoo/jungle theme we have going on in the nursery, Jackson is destined to be a zoo keeper.....we will see! I have had so much fun decorating and putting together his little room and I hope he loves it!!! Here is his crib with letters we made and a mirror that i love!!! His crib is from Target and the bedding is from Serena and Lilly  We got the letters from hobby lobby and then hot glued zoo animals onto the letters and the orange ribbon I was really into bamboo shades and love the way the windows turned out with the brown and white combo. His changing table is a dresser we got from the Pottery Barn outlet and then we got the cover from a shop on Etsy Ryan's dad repainted this rocking chair for Jackson. It was the chair that Ms. Cindy rocked Ryan and his brothe...

Lesson in the Messes

I am having a moment where I need some blogging therapy....been so long since I have hit the blogging scene but today I just felt the need for some bloggin'. At 9 am today, I was covered in poop and headed down the road of a full on melt down (me, not my 2 1/2 year old or my 10 month old---ME). We are in the throws of potty training and my type A self is taking accidents way to personally....am I alone here? I pray not.....Anyways, Jackson says he has to poop but I cannot get there because I am changing my 10 month old's poopy diaper and I tell him just to go in his Pull Up. Which I am going ahead and embracing Pull Ups after an accident soaking the entire couch and another one involving a fairly new rug!! Anyways, I finally got him out of his chair about 30 minutes later and there is poop everywhere- I mean EVERYWHERE...covering the chair, my son, his feet, his legs but I do not realize how much body surface is covered until I get him into his room and start changing him. I...
