Living out loud in the Carolinas

  • I found the best little surprise in my mail the other day…these adorable note cards made by Sandy! I love them! Sandy, you totally need to sell the awesome cards you make! I’m such a sucker for note cards and stationary, especially cute ones like these!  Thank you so much Sandy!

  • Today I went down to Papa & Gigi’s to celebrate Father’s Day.  Momo, Sara & the boys were there too.  I gave Papa his annual photo book.  This gift is always a hit and always brings a tear to his eye. He loved it. I make one every year on my Mac, compiling my favorite…

  • Nanny bought me this cool plant and pot at IKEA while she was in town. I just love the way it looks on the half wall between the dining room and the living room. I hope I can keep it alive! I have a bit of a black thumb! *Ok, so just learned while finding…

  • Papa was out of town for Father’s Day so we’ll celebrate next Sunday.  On Father’s Day CSP’s parents came over for dinner.  We grilled and played with the pugs.  I swear, my MIL is the pug whisperer.  No one else can hold Kiki for as long as she can.

  • I just love our hibiscus tree. The blooms only last a day or two, but every other day new blooms appear. Gorgeous!

  • Final story from the family visit.  So, the night of the big dinner party I was busy cooking when Sara asked me for a phone book.  I pointed to the cabinet where we keep them and went back to cooking. All the sudden I hear GASP! “I’m gonna tell Nanny what you keep with your…

  • Having your 86 year old Irish grandmother visit, along with your insane bio father, provides much entertainment.  Add in a surprise visit from your 77 year old Irish great uncle, keep your 6 and 4 yr old nephews around, and your sides ache from laughing after a few days.  Here are my favorite quotes from…

  • Jacob was in the bathtub complaining to Sara about his legs itching. My legs itch from the bites I got at Uncle Sherman’s farm. Who? Uncle Sherman. It’s Uncle Kevin. I know, but he likes me to call him Uncle Sherman. (laughing) Why?  Because his name is Uncle Kevin. Cause Kevin is where you go…

  • Yesterday morning Zoe and I hopped in the car, stopped by 5bucks for a green tea frapp in my reusable Starbucks tumbler, and hit the road for Gigi’s house.  We looked at pics from FloFamFest 2009 then went to visit Gmommy (real name Winkie) at the nursing home.  We spent a couple hours cataloging Gmommy’s…

  • Yesterday morning we woke up and helped Nanny get her car all packed.  BF (bio father) had driven Nanny up here for the visit.  She’s 86 so she doesn’t drive much anymore.  CSP is not BF’s biggest fan.  I knew CSP was outside taking the pugs potty but he was taking so long.  Nanny was…
