Memorial Day Weekend

Skiff happy to see the water in Ocean Isle on Friday

The three of us took him to the beach Friday night. Saturday morning we went to get tomatoes for Kevin and we got boiled peanuts too. Alice gave the kiddos the ultimate experience at her place - peaches and learning how to peel peanuts from the professional! 

​

Saturday beach day

Skiff had a good day! It wasn't too hot and he's allowed on the beach before Memorial Day and after Labor Day  he loved it!

A pup cup from king of pops!

The kids and I got to go see our friend's new home. It has the best view of all times.

Hey

​Been a bit out of commission but I'll be back soon! 

Mothers Day

This was my Mother's Day. I'm telling you - teachers are amazing. Both of my kiddos gave me the most thoughtful cards and cute things. Mostly all via school! Soo nice! ​

Church

Then lunch at Burtons! Hilary and I made reservations haha! Sometimes we gotta take matters into our own hands!

Easy Dinner

This is such an easy dinner. The kids loved it. I got the below ham and threw it in the air fryer and drizzled a little mixture of honey and brown sugar over it. Good ole scalloped potatoes from a box (reminds me of growing up). ​And a bagged chopped salad! Done  

Grady's 8th Birthday

​Grady's actual birthday was Saturday. We also had a field hockey game, piano recital and a baseball game! His big birthday highlight was THE BAT that my parents gave him! It was all he wanted! He got to play with it in his game that afternoon and had some good hits! We celebrated with dinner that night with one of his buddies at Porters House!

We were in charge of snack on his birthday!

First up Bojangles!

Sooo happy about his gifts! He never asks for anything so it's fun to spoil him!

Field hockey then piano recital 

They all sung happy birthday to him!

The bat got a workout!

Porters house din with Beau!

It was a good day to be Grady!

Zoo

​Among two baseball games and two field hockey practices this week, Molly Anne's class had a field trip to the NC Zoo which I chaperoned. Her last field trip! It was fun but we def see more animals at the SC Zoo! Grateful to get to be with her and the flexibility at my office to make it happen! 

On The Hunt

​I am on the hunt for a work dress for a conference and a couple evening dresses for Vegas that are still professional but fun. And shoes for a wedding! Here is what popped into my head!

ONE - love this dress and it looks long enough for a 43 year old!

TWO - a classic but I won't want to sweat through blue so tbd

THREE - not sure how flattering this smocking at the waist on this dress will be but going to try bc Spanx! 

FOUR - no heels for me any more at least not for hours on end!

FIVE - this one is so good.
