What every mom needs!

Like I said before, in March I met up with my first roomies from college in Georgia for a girls only get-a-way. For four days I got to relive my freshman year (minus the classes and tests), and remember what it was like to be single, have no responsibilities, and just enjoy hanging out with the girls! My boys hardly even missed me with both Grannies in town taking care of them!

This is where we stayed.

Christine, Linda, Lechelle, Em and me.

It had been 10 years since we were all together!

Lechelle showing off her skills!

Em and I brought plenty of our own!

The sea turtles were fun and educational!

One afternoon we rented these bad boys...

...and one of these since we had an odd number.

Riding along the beach. It wasn't as relaxing as it looks, pedaling those things took a lot of work!

Pillow fight!

Em called a truce!

Can you guess who wanted to go to the beach? It was a little too cold for me!

We did our own facials one night...

...and then went out for pedicures the next day.

As soon as we saw this sign we knew we had to eat there!

Best food we had all week!

For the record I really wanted to move the Georgia Bull Dog for the picture, but some thought it might be rude!

It was such a great trip! I can't wait for the next one!

Trips, trips, trips...

I haven't been blogging lately because of a lack of things to blog about, I've just been lazy. We have actually been on three trips in the past couple of months that I've been meaning to post about! The problem? I have a million pictures from each trip, and I just haven't felt like weeding through them! I promise to have some upcoming posts soon! Here is a little preview:

1. Way back in March I met up with my roommates from my freshman year of college for a girls only get-a-way. We spent four days in Georgia and it was a fabulous trip!

2. In May I found some super cheap tickets to WV and a week later the boys and I were on a plane! We enjoyed 10 fun filled days with my family. It was such a fun trip that Tyler cried almost the entire flight back because he didn't want to leave!

3. Two weeks ago we were in TN visiting some friends. This time Matt got to come! It was a really fun trip, we just wish they still lived in FL so we could hang out more often!

Picture catch-up!

I thought I'd post some pictures of the boys that I've taken over the past month or so. The majority of the pictures are of Riley since he is the only one that will let me take his picture! I did manage to get a couple of Tyler though!

This is what happens when you wake up way to early in the morning, you don't make it through lunch!

I guess we have a high chair theme going on here! This is Riley's unsuccessful attempt at getting out of his high chair!

The boys love to wear my shoes! I think they like the way the heals sound when they walk!

My little poser!

His favorite thing at the park is the swing!

Just being silly!

Coloring together.

The beginning of the end.

About 2 weeks ago I celebrated my 29th birthday, my last year in the 20's! Matt took me out to my favorite sushi place on my birthday and then he threw a party for me a couple of days later. It was a great birthday, thanks honey!

With my hot date before we went out!

The boys got me this statue to add to my collection.

With Deb and Mel at the party.

Thanks for coming everyone!

A trip to Naples.

The boys and I got to go to Naples for a couple of days to visit our friends, the Rosen family. It was fun hanging out with them again and the boys loved having friends to play with 24/7! We had a great time! Thanks for everything Manda!

The crew. It's really hard to get 4 boys to sit still for a picture!

Manda is super creative and came up with this 'map game' for the boys to play. They each got a map of the US which they colored first, then she would ask them to find a certain state by looking for the letter it began with. Once they found the state they each got to put a star sticker on it. They found all the states that the boys family and friends lived in. The boys loved it! Here they are with their maps.

Riley colored during the map game. I guess the boys were too loud for him!

The beaches in Naples are definitely nicer than Daytona! It seems like there are more shells on the beach than sand!
