Great Weekend....Picture FAIL


We have had a fabulous few days around here.  On Saturday we headed back down the beach {again I know!} to celebrate the engagement of one of my Marine's Girls.  Back in 2004 when Skip deployed to Iraq, I became very close with two girls, M and L, whose boyfriends were in Skip's unit.  L got married two years ago, and just a few months ago, M got engaged!  We were super excited to head down and celebrate with them.

Little M tagged along and had a great time running around and playing with M's Old English Bulldog.  She was the life of the party and managed to stay awake and cranky-free until 9 pm.   Wahoo!!  Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures {bad blogger!} So these two I stole from M!!

The happy couple!

Hanging out with everyone!



Sunday we got up nice and early and headed back home.  My birthday is tomorrow but I celebrated it with my friends and family yesterday!  My family came over at 1:00 and we ate pizza, cake, opened presents, and of course watched the Giants beat the Lions!  Wahoo!!!  I didn't take any pictures then either, so here are some my big sis L took!

Let's open some gifts!

Reading some cards

Presents

A Giant's necklace from my parents!

My candles represented goal posts!

Snuggling with Little M, watching the game

Giant's win!!
We had a great time with my friends that night too.  We had about 13 people over and we watched the Sunday night football game {of course}  This time no one took any pictures {FAIL} since we were too busy having fun!  It was a wonderful weekend and I can't wait to have a relaxing birthday tomorrow!

The Movers Concert!

Image
Sooo, I totally didn't mean to take this mini blogging break.  But life has just been crazy busy and on the go the past few days that there was no time!  It was nice though to just step away from pretty much all social media and just LIVE.  This weekend was good for my soul and I will be doing a few catch-up posts to fill you all in! The fun began on Thursday afternoon.  Way back in October, Skip and I heard that that Imagination Movers were doing a concert nearby.  You know, these guys from the Disney Channel... They once aired a concert of theirs on the Disney Channel and Little M is OBSESSED.  We have it saved on the DVR, and she wants to watch it at least 3 times a week.  So when we heard about the tickets in October, we were really tempted.  But we didn't know if she would still be interested in them, and with our trip to Disney, we were saving all the money we could. Well fast forward to two weeks ago.  Little M was asking to watch the ...

30 Miles in 30 Days

Happy Thursday everyone!  I'll be honest, I almost didn't link up today.  Mainly because there's really not much to report.  Here's what I did:   Thursday September 19 - none Friday - nothing Saturday - 2.5 mile walk Sunday - nada Monday - zip Tuesday - nothin' Wednesday - no thing Weekly Total - 2.5 August total - 31.4 Yeaaaaaah...so that whole 50, maybe 60 miles I was hoping for this month is not going to happen.  In my defense, I seem to have come down with the plague and have been sick all week.  Saturday was the only day I felt kind of normal.  I always have trouble pushing myself when I have a cold to workout, and normally end up just sitting on the couch under a blanket instead.  I really do miss working out though and will hopefully be able to get a little something done to finish out the month. What about you?  Do you still workout when you're sick?  How do you motivate yourself?

Busy, Busy, Busy

Okay, so I know that I really should be posting a "Wordless Wednesday" post filled with all the pictures from our beach vacation last week, but I completely neglected to upload them onto my computer. Oh, and we came down the shore again yesterday until Saturday, so there will be even *more* pictures I need to upload! I promise I will catch up eventually, it's just that this summer has just been so darn busy!! Little M is moving all over the place now! No real crawling yet but it's coming any day now. She does manage to move herself around though! Oh and we think we've figured out what her first word is probably going to be. Of course my daughter has to be different and it isn't going to be anything traditional like 'Mama' or 'Dada'. It's going to be 'Braddock'. That is the name of our bulldog Mr. B. All day M keeps saying 'Braa, Braa' so it's only a matter of time before 'Braddock' comes out, haha. We a...
