another great beach weekend.

on wednesday i headed down to the beach for memorial with these two love bugs. my mom was in town and decided to ride with us instead of flying home then driving herself to the beach from texas. we got there late that night, but it was so worth it waking up at the beach thursday morning. my dad, brother + some of our family friends flew in that night. we all had an amazing weekend filled with lots of beach time, great food, dog walking + bike riding. more pictures + details for the weekend to come soon!

my first (soon to be) mother's day.

sunday i was fortunate enough to be able to celebrate my first mother's day. though the baby is still in my belly, i feel like i have already started learning what motherhood is all about. i feel so blessed to have this healthy baby girl growing inside me. husband and i are constantly saying how crazy is it that there is something alive that is inside me. it's just mind boggling and confirms our faith in God even more. 


we spent the day at church, followed by lunch at the hermitage hotel with his family. it was a very rainy day, so as soon as lunch was over we went home, put on our pajamas, and caught up on tv for the rest of the day. husband brought me to anthropologie on saturday to pick out some new clothes since not everything in my closet is fitting these days, so that was my mother's day gift. 


we cannot wait to meet our little girl. she's completely ours which is hard for me to wrap my head around! the ultrasound pictures these days are so high-tech you can already kind of tell what the baby will look like which makes the anticipation even greater. 18 more weeks, and we will be holding that sweet angel! 


here's to many more mother's days to come. 

the end of a era.

sunday night husband and i mourned the series finale of desperate housewives. we both had been watching it since the beginning... separately then together for the past two years. we ate ice cream with homemade chocolate sauce and dreaded the end.


tv just isn't what it used to be. i'm not saying that i'm not absolutely in love with new girl, but most of the shows just don't seem to be as good as the 8 seasons of desperate were. in the last season, it was just as good as it's first.


well i'm done with my mourning. sunday nights just won't be the same!

more woodwork.

well our house is starting to look even more like a home. we have all the walls and ceilings up making it easy to see each room. it's so exciting to see are dreams come alive!

more updates to come.
