Five on Friday - Summer Swim and Well Visit

ONE - Grady finally had his well visit yesterday. 92% for weight and 87% for height! And perfect in every way!

TWO - tile selections for a space we are doing on the 3rd floor. I'm obsessed with this option but Kevin doesn't like it. Whomp whomp.

THREE - life changing that they can scoot to swim now by themselves! I just happened to be following her this day.

FOUR - speaking of summer swim - they back!

FIVE - wishing I was sitting on this dock right now. Grady loved kayaking on Monday morning before we left!

TWO - love this dress and evidently it's not see-through.

THREE - this yellow!

FOUR - a shell clip that Molly Anne would definitely take and wear!

FIVE - speaking of Molly Anne - finally found a top that isn't cropped and is loose fitting and cool! On sale.

Freezer clean out

Most of my meals this week are super easy because I have zero time with sports even though I prep dinners the night before. Here is my less than fancy situation for this week:

Sausages from freezer with peas and waffle fries 

Chili from freezer with apple sauce

Hamburgers in air fryer, mashed potatoes and green beans OR green chili enchiladas 

Chicken nuggets, potato salad and pineapple

MDW

We had a nice Memorial Day weekend down in ocean isle. The most beautiful Friday evening boat ride to Little River on our friend's boat.

Saturday beach day!

My parents sent us these awesome Shibumi chairs. They're fabulous!

Saturday night we went to dinner at jinks.

some good fishing off the dock.

Swimming at our friends house on Sunday afternoon!

More fishing. I taught myself how to put line on a fishing rod this weekend for Grady's new rod.

Saw one of my dear college buddies at the concert. Got to see his wife and two girlies!

Of course they're all on stage!

He danced his heart out!

I spent hours cleaning out our garage this weekend. Major throwing away and sweeping out sand. It floods so often that it's just the way it is. Feels so much better now. Got rid of the old owner's stuff that we haven't used in 4 years!

Always something to do and fix down there. It was nice to have some quiet, chill time the four of us. Kevin and I sat on the back porch a couple of nights and caught up. It was good. Here's to the second to last week of school!

Vegas

hello friends!

I have been in Vegas since Sunday for the ICSC commerical real estate conference. It was a great time with co-workers, clients, and old friends! We had amazing dinners and lots of productive meetings! I got back yesterday afternoon after a 6am flight and rolled right into swim team and baseball practice. The combined 5 hours of sleep over two nights didn't do much for me so lots of catching up to do. Good times! Love Vegas for the annual conference and glad to be home!

Stayed at the Four Seasons this year. Impeccable services and gorg lobby!

During the turn down service they cleaned up my cords Four Seasons style!

Insane dinner at Joe's Seafood!

And at Don's in Fountainbleu. Joes was better.

Back in the swing. Chat soon!

Weekend of Sports

Grady had a game on Friday night and again early Saturday morning. Good times and laundry in between! He had two great games.

Kevin took Molly Anne to field hockey while Grady played. We went straight from the fields to watch her play in the end of season tournament. It was fun!

Molly Anne went to a birthday party on Saturday night so the three of us went to Little Mama's for dinner. Sooo good. Hung in the driveway next door for a bit and called it a night.

Yesterday the kids had choir performances in the morning and evening. All good stuff but life is about to get busier. Swim team and more baseball!

Friday

ONE - finally got some flowers planted this week. Did that in the 7am hour one of the days. Also cherry tomatoes and basil! Usually I plant a lot more than this but we will see. I may add more but this is fine for now.

TWO - also finally got a picture of Grady in front of his rock!

THREE - made some big headway on cleaning out the playroom. Sooo many stuffed animals. I think I'm going to get the bean bag covers to put these in.

FOUR - a cute little boy named Mills is hanging on with us. He's been very playful in the mornings this week! Even got on his bed!

FIVE - did I tell yall we had a grease fire in our grill a few Sundays ago? I used the fire extinguisher to put it out. It was a whole event as I'm sure you can imagine. Lessons I learned - make sure you have an ABC fire extinguisher close by. Make sure you know how to use it - pull the plug then press down. Make sure you have your grill professionally cleaned afterwards. I googled how to dispose of the extinguisher because most home ones are one time use and it said take it to the fire department. So the kids and I took donuts over there one night this week to give it to them. They were so sweet and helped Grady get over a little fear of their masks which just recently started and I have no idea where it came from!

Happy weekend everyone. We will be doing the sports circuit - two baseball games and a field hockey tournament!
