Our most recent trip to FL

Last weekend (6/5) we headed back to Tallahassee one more time for a QUICK trip!! We had a late start leaving so we didn't get in until midnight!! It was a really long drive!! So... saturday morning I got up and met with Lauren for some Bagel Bagel & shopping.. and of course to get some sweet loving from her baby!! We had a really nice morning together!

At 2 I had to go to a baby shower, for my brother's new baby! I am getting a Niece!!! I am so excited to finally have a niece of my very own to spoil rotten!!! Baby Madalynn is expected to arrive July 1st!! We are sooooooo excited!! It was such a beautiful shower! The ladies that threw it really out did themselves!! I love baby showers!!!

After the shower was over I headed back over to Tony's parents house to celebrate his moms birthday.. We had a YUMMY shrimp boil, and I stopped and picked up a delicious cream cheese & Raspberry cake!! It was soooooo good!! We all had a really nice time, and we got to spend even more time playing with Lauren's baby Madison!! Madison is probably the most happy baby ever, and she is ALWAYS a joy to be around!!

On sunday beore we had to head out, we met up with some friends for brunch!! It was very last minute, but I'm so glad it worked out!! It was really nice to catch up with the Hagertys! The food was great & so was the company!! Can't beat that!! We had such a nice visit.. Can't wait to go back for another visit!

Nanny got married!

My Nanny (grandma) got married!!! There's not a whole lot to blog about.. thats pretty straight forward LOL! Here are some pics of her little shindig..

Olivia's FL party

Olivia has to be the luckiest girl ever!! She had a party with her Charleston friends.. a bday party with her mommy & daddy... and a Chuck E Cheese party with her Tallahassee friends & family!!

Here is a picture of the birthday girl... She looks thrilled.. I know..



Here is a picture of some of our guests..



The YUMMY cake we got from the cake shop!!



and this was the beginning of the opening of presents!!

LIv's first Mani & Pedi

Tony was out of town on Olivia's actual 3rd birthday, so Olivia and I decided to drive up to see him that evening.. before we left we did a little celebrating on our own!! I told Olivia we would go to breakfast anywhere she wanted to, and she picked IHOP! Which is funny because we're not frequent IHOP goers... in fact she'd only been there once before.. but anyways.. we went to IHOP For breakfast, and Olivia of course was decked out in her birthday girl outfit, complete with a little tiara :) The staff at IHOP came out and sang to her, she wasn't too sure about that LOL! During breakfast I was talking to Olivia about getting her nails done... this of course appealed to her.. LOL.. so after breakfast we were off to get her very first mani & pedi.. I of course had to take pictures!! Enjoy!!

Rain Rain DON'T go away!!

For awhile there we were getting quite a bit of rain.... Whats a girl to do besides put on her monkey boots, a jacket & grab the umbrella!!! Here are some pics of our princess playing in the rain :)

Our little funny bug!

Last summer when we first moved here, we enrolled Olivia into gymnastics.. it started out to be a mommy & me type class once a week. Since she's now 3 she had to move up classes, from a super beast to a funny bug!! As a funny bug she goes by herself.. no more mommy :(


Here's a picture of her showing off her balance beam skills during her last class as a super beast...





Here is Olivia getting her gold medal for finishing out the semester as a super beast.





Here is a picture of the entire super beast class




This is Olivia sitting with her NEW funny bug class (all by herself... without me)





The class got to play with the parachute.. one of Liv's favorite activities!






And here's a picture of my princess!!



We have really enjoyed watching her grow at the little gym, she did a very good job at her 1st funny bug class, but she has decided to take a break from gymnastics, so we might wait and pick it back up in the fall :)

Some of the most wonderful friends EVER!!

A few weeks ago some of our friends decided to throw Olivia a surprise birthday party at a park.. It was a complete surprise to Olivia & I. I had no idea that my husband knew about it, and was able to keep it from me!! We had such a great time at the party, and we really appreciated everyone that came to celebrate Olivia on her special day!

Here is a picture of some of the party crowd..





I'm not exactly sure who helped do what, but I know Mary had a hand in helping Tony figure out what to buy, and all the fun stuff girls look forward to and guys have no clue about... And I really just love this picture of her!! ( Mary don't kill me)






Here is a picture of some of the kids that came to play & celebrate with Olivia.. they are pretty stinkin' cute!!





There were sprinklers at the park to keep the kids entertained & nice and cool on a hot day in May.


Thanks again to everyone that helped with the party, and who came out to celebrate!! We have truly been blessed with some wonderful friends in Charleston!!
