So we meet again

'Tis the Season. Spencer ran right up to Santa this year and began spittin' off each item he wished for. Cam had to sit on my lap again and just wasn't sure about this hairy dude. Thank goodness for the amazing photogs that run the place because otherwise we would've had those classic crying photos with Santa… which wouldn't be a terrible thing. I secretly want one :)

Happy Holidays,

August 2014 ~ School daze

August was quite the busy month and life changing. At 3 years old and 22 months, Spencer and Cameron went off to Montessori school. It was a very difficult thing to do, for me especially, but I knew they were ready. Spencer had been ready for some time and I felt like we were holding him back by keeping him home. Both boys have stayed at home with us since birth so you can imagine the emptiness it left by not having them here anymore. Not hearing their voices and laughs throughout the day. It's quite sad actually, but I got through it, both boys LOVE it so much, and now we're all as happy as can be. The boys get to go spend their days learning and playing with their friends, and Mommy and Daddy now have a quite home during the day while we work. Win-win.

July 2014 ~ goin' viral

July was quite the busy and interesting month. We spent the 4th of July over in New Smyrna Beach, just as we do each year. Libby and Lucy were down visiting with us which is always fun. That in itself makes the vacay.
So on the actual 4th we spent most of our day down at the beach, as usual. We pushed the boys until they couldn't go any further, which means when Cameron had a meltdown. So we all walked back up to the house to let them decompress and nap for a bit before the real festivities began. We left our belongings down in the sand as we usually do, which included the beach cart with a few chairs, boogie boards and our kids beach bag with toys. We also left our canopy set up as it's kinda a pain to assemble/disassemble. Once up that house we had a couple of cold beverages and the boys were relaxing. Cork, Rich's dad, thought it would be a good idea to go and check on our stuff down at the beach since it was the 4th of July and he thought beach patrol would've had a problem with us keeping it up and unattended. So Rich headed down on his own. A short 15 minutes later, Lib and I receive a text from Rich with just a video. After watching the video we both got in the car and darted down to the beach where this was happening:

In case you were wondering, that's our stuff. And that's my husband filming. And his video kinda went viral. No big deal. LOL

And in case you were wondering what happened afterwards. Here is Rich's interview with GAWKER 

June 2014

For our Summer trip this year, we spent a week in Anna Maria Island. My parents joined us and we rented a house a few blocks from the beach. The house included an amazing swimming pool with a swim-up tiki hut and a beautiful back patio area. We only had to go out a few times because we chose to, but otherwise we cooked and ate in which was much easier with our two busy bodies. During this trip we also stumbled upon a little donut shop where your donuts are made to order. They come out hot and fresh, and are just plain trouble.
