First Beach Trip of the Season!!

What a great first beach trip of the season it was!!! The Reeses were kind enough to host us in their newly-owned condo at Litchfield By the Sea. Ryan and I arrived for the week on Tuesday of last week. It was a wonderful week of beautiful weather, good food and sweet time with family. I got really into The Prince of Tides, a book by Pat Conroy, and was thoroughly entertained by that for the week...such a good book!! We went out to eat, worked on puzzles, went shopping, exercised and played Bocce ball. It was a week filled with family at my favorite place in the entire world!

Tuesday night at Lee's Inlet Kitchen. Everyone was cracked up because Ashley had the tallest heels ever on and was having to squat down to be even with the men in the group ;)

And, Ryan decided to squat too

On Thursday night, we met up with the rest of Ryan's family that were also at the beach. It was a big crowd but so so much fun.

Friday, Ryan's family took me to my favorite shopping place at the beach and we went to eat out there for my birthday. The made me feel so special and really honored me on my birthday. It was so much fun! Also, Market Common is the best place ever!!

Adorable pic of Ash and Cory

Sporting our pink (I PROMISE we did not plan this...we never ever plan to match, but somehow we always end up walking out the house with the exact same color on)

After dinner at P.F. Chang's we went for some ice cream at our favorite spot, Painters...delicious!

How about this coordinating background?



The Reeses left on Saturday and R and myself headed over to my parent's beach house to hang out with some of my family. We all went out on the beach, had a baseball game and enjoyed the sunshine. We were all together for Father's day on Sunday morning and went out to eat breakfast together.

Davis was cracking us up relaxing in this chair...he looked so grown up, so....

we thought it would be funny if he posed with a Bud Light....I promise he did NOT drink a sip!

Love these little babies!!

Anna and myself....I have nicknamed my haircut "Shroom"(like a mushroom) and they all decided Anna had a "Shroom" haircut as well, so the entire day we were referred to as "Shroom 1" and "Shroom 2"

Love this man of mine!!

It was a great beach trip. I also was able to celebrate my birthday with both families which was fun as well. I can't wait to be back. Thanks to all those who made it so perfect!!

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 ...

Baby Jackson's Nursery

We are awaiting baby Jackson's arrival right now at 39 weeks and 4 days:) so, why not pass the time by sharing a few pictures of his nursery? 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...
