The weekend oh weekend.

Busy as usual, what's new? 

  Friday night when Zach got off we had places to go in Fort Smith, I don't cook dinner on Fridays, we always go out. (Housewife rule, duh!) anyway, so I was starving by the time we finally left the house & said "let's just get something quick & cheap!" We go to cici's pizza. NEVER AGAIN. It was gross, so disgusting, I really think bugs & cardboard could be a couple of theirs ingredients. Ugh yuck, just thinking about that place grosses me out. One of those things, "you get what you pay for." Well, next time we will be paying for Longhorn Steakhouse. Yes. 

  So then Saturday, Zach & I had decided we wanted to get a sitter for Ellis & spend the day with just Legend, let him decide what he wanted to do & just enjoy our time with him before he grows up on us, he's going on 4 years old, y'all I can't believe it. But he thinks he's 30? Yeah, overwhelm me. He decided he wanted to go to the waterpark & to get snow cones. So that's what we did, it couldn't have been more fun, we really enjoyed being able to focus all of our attention on him! We went to Alma water park, let me just tell ya, if you feel down about yourself, head to a water park-- instant self-esteem booster! Some people are just not meant to be in a bikini?! Yikes! 

Saturday evening, we headed over to our friends Meagan & Joseph's for a birthday party & some Mexican food (YUMMO!!!), so so glad we have connected with them! Zach & Joseph are so much alike it's not even funny, Meagan & I just watch them & shake our heads. It's the beginning of a fabulous friendship! Haha 

  Sunday morning at the butt crack of dawn, we woke up to go pick Okra for my dad, he was out of town & needed it picked, of course we offered! Nothing is better than fried okra in the south-- get in my tummy! After that, we headed to Zach's  grandmothers, where we go every Sunday after church, so many memories are being made & I get tears in my eyes just thinking about our children having such a close relationship with their GREAT-GRANDPARENTS! What an honor! So stinkin sweet, I know all of us will forever cherish those moments! We had roast, peas, corn, okra, & some yummy pumpkin pie. Mmmmmm. It was wonderful. We left grandmas & then came back to Greenwood for Legends orientation at Pre-School, can't believe it. I know I will be crying my eyes out. Stop growing, please. His teacher is perfect though, he has not stopped talking about it & is so excited, so that definitely makes it easier! 

Well, we leave for Vaca this weekend!! Ahhhhh so so ready to get my toes in the sand! Hello Florida! I can't wait to do a beach update!! 

He's sand castle ready, y'all! 

This girl is as rotten as it gets. We definitely have our hands full! 

Ok, well I hope you all have a great week!

Best friends, downtown, food, margaritas, & too much talkin.

Hola people! 

  I left Sunday mornin & road tripped all by my lonesome to visit my best friend. Buuuut, sometimes life on the road, for three hours, alone, is just what a momma needs. Just what I needed anyway! 

  I left super early while Zach, Legend, & Ellis were still snoozin so I wouldn't shed any tears saying good bye. It was very hard to leave my babes for two night/three days but I just kept telling myself.. It's okay & totally healthy for momma to take a break when needed, & believe me, this was DESPERATELY NEEDED. Tammy [bff] has three boys, her husbands family live in New York, so her hubs & boys were in NY on a boys trip at the PGA tour so what better time to have some girl time, right?! Yes. Ahh! 

   So anyway, I got there mid-morning, we went & had brunch at the most precious Italian restaurant, Flips! Loved it & would head back every Sunday if possible. 

See, I told you she was precious! We are picture perfect best friends & were so happy to be reunited! 

  I had so much fun & always enjoy the exciting, crazy, busy, laughing times we share! 

  I love you, Tammy! So glad we found each other in life, at just the right time. Thank you for bring my sidekick, partner in crime, best friend! Can't wait until next time!

July is over.. WHAAAAT?!

Ok y'all, I'm gonna shoot for a super long & quick (is that possible??) update, let's see how it goes.. Then I will be back to regular detailed posts. :)) 

I hope everyone is having a FABULOUS summer, we are! Busy-- weddings, birthday parties, swimming, travels, & just enjoying the sun! Holla! 

This was the first swim of the summer, check out that green water & those boys diving right in! Yikes! 

A typical day in the life of our girl, her bouncer is her FAVORITE! It's the first thing she is reaching for after breakfast each morning! 

Independence Day was so fun this year spending time with family, swim time, & all that yummy food. 

Zach & I celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary-- which seems like 33 years, right?! Love love love! 

Our favorite OKC boys came to visit us in Arkansas before summer is over! Love them! 

Disc golf is the new cool thing to do in our house.. We live super close to the course so Legend & Zach try to get a couple of games in every week! 

Legend, the fish, completed swimming lessons last week, he did such a great job & swims around that pool like nobody's business, get it! 

Happy 8 months today to our baby girl, can't believe how fast this is going by! We love you, Ellis Claire, with everything we have. You are perfect & make our family so complete! I am SO proud of your progress, my little miracle baby! We love you!!

I am actually in OKC right now with my best friend, we are enjoying each others company & catching up, the best! 

I hope everyone has a great week & I promise to be back to blog world ASAP for another update, I want to keep this going so I can get on here & look back at all of our sweet memories!
