Our Fourth of July Weekend

Happy Wednesday!

Today it is all about our Fourth of July weekend activities!
We started out our festivities with getting haircuts!

My hair was long, thick and very heavy so I needed something to make it through the hot and humid weather that we live in

So I cut it really short 

It curled up afterwards from being wet, but not washed. It took me a few days to get used to not having my long hair to just throw up into a bun but I love it now! 

After haircuts and lunch at our favorite pizza place we went and bought lots of fireworks! Riley saw Daddy and decided to stand up while we were in line. You can see Charlotte's little arm reaching for Riley! He sat down right after but it was cute to see them interacting! 

After naps, we went to the town 10 minutes north of us and went to the fireworks festival and made silly faces while waitng

He was throwing puffs at me

Then getting very serious when he saw them again

My sweet hubs! He also cut his hair! 

They had a farmer's market while we were there and someone was holding an alligator

and had another one behind him

The hubs and I

Riley and Daddy watching the fireworks! Riley loved them. The loud noises did not phase him at all

He even let Daddy  hold him up with his bottle 

Charlotte on the other hand, wanted nothing to do with them. She tackled me when they started and stayed in this position the whole time. 

My sweet babies! 

The next day we grilled out for dinner and did our own fireworks


and sparklers! The babies were in bed but they didn't hear a thing and slept all night! 

 
Third Fourth of July for this cutie! 
A little throwback of Charlotte's First Fourth of July! She was so very little! :) 

First Fourth of July for this sweet boy

The Fourth of July we wore our red white and blue but stayed home and just did pretty much nothing. Scott had to leave for work that night so we just relaxed but still had a good day!
These cuties are so sweet! I loved the outfits for the Fourth of July! 

So we started out Fourth of July busy, and ended it at home relaxing. It was a fun weekend of celebrating America and I really loved seeing Charlotte understand a little more of what were were talking about as the weekend went on.

Have a great Wednesday everyone! 
XOXO

Memorial Day catch up!

Happy Tuesday!  We survived Pre-K!  Char graduated last Thursday and her last day on Friday! She had such a fun year and learned so much and is very sad to be going to a different school next year, but she is also so excited as well! I just cannot believe I have a Kindergartener! Time flies when they are growing up! We had a super busy weekend with my sister coming into town to visit, so I'm catching up on laundry, and cleaning and getting into a summer routine with the kiddos! We are so excited for adventures this summer!  I will be back tomorrow with a weekend recap, but for now here is some photos from Char's graduation at her Pre-K! Have a great day everyone and thanks for stopping by!

Weekend Recap!

Happy Monday! I wont lie, today is a lot like my dish towel says: We had all the plans to go exploring and do something productive this weekend, but I only managed to clean the entire kitchen on Friday afternoon while the babies were napping! Here is a a bit of our weekend:  Friday morning started out with two monkeys jumping on the bed bright and early!  I love how they wake up so happy in the morning Riley got his 15 month shots on Thursday so I was fully expecting a grump and a half and got a very happy smiley baby boy instead!  We practiced blowing kisses We snuggled and we ran around with our backpack of toys Mommy did not unpack from the doctor's visit.  Saturday we spent lots of time snuggling on the couch, napping, and watching cartoons and just relaxing before hitting up the grocery store for a big trip. We got home late enough it was a sandwich for dinner kind of night.  Sunday we had plans to go out and ab...

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to all! It's been a wonderful family weekend! Unfortunately our Memorial Day ended early, since Scott is now headed to work. He has to be in Miami, 7 am tomorrow! Yuck. Luckily Monday is almost over and we only have to make it until Friday until we see him again! Trying to stay positive and look at it as a good thing, not a bad. It is hard to see him leave, but I know he has to go to work. Charlotte was sad but luckily nap time was soon after he left so she transitioned into sleep fine. She will be upset when she gets up in a few but lots of cuddles, cartoons and playing until bed time will keep her preoccupied. We are headed to the beach this weekend, and then staying down there for the week while Scott works, but we will all be together and Mommy and Charlotte will be looking at houses while Daddy works so we will stay occupied with that and lots of pool time! Cannot wait until this week is over. May is almost over, then June is here! Cannot believe that! ...
