raised in the city...

raising my girls in the city creates a longing in me, for them to know farm life.

strawberry picking in loganville seemed perfect for us.

we enjoy open land and open views so much more since we don't see them very often.

immediately upon arriving josie had to take her shoes off.

i loved it!

i love hanging out with my two girls all day!

my new favorite things...

Ok, so I'm not Oprah but I do have some new favorite things!

just wanted to share.

I was in New York City last week so I feel super trendy. Plus, I didn't have spit- up on my shoulder, which too makes one feel ultra with-it.

I went to an Amos Lee concert. (Do you remember that cheer?..."A-W-E-S-O-M-E...awesome, awesome..totally!)

Describing a concert with a cheer= not trendy.

These girls opened up. To say that I LOVED them is an understatement. They are from Alabama, raised in the church, sing old gospel music (along with others)...yes, please. Don't worry because I met them and got their autograph on my CD. Again, trendy.

On the girly front, this is my new favorite lipstick that my friend Cori told me to get.

Apparently Ulta has more options of lip coverage than CVS...who knew?

magic kingdom

In my humble opinion...2.5 is a great age to go to the Magic Kingdom.

1) They are free.

2) They are free.

3) They know the characters.

It was great because we would walk through the park and Josie would spot a character and yell their name excited to go meet them. We visited the park last year at 18 months and I felt I was having to instruct her to identify everyone. "Josie this is the winnie the pooh ride...it is fun. And it cost a lot of money for mom to ride this, so you need to enjoy it....ok? ok!" (jk...i am not that cruel...but the thoughts in my head are)

This year I took a different tactic. We focused on being present for all the parades and visiting every character that she likes. SCORE.

squeeze-worthy

no decluttering

I haven't been decluttering...yet... (see previous blog entry)

largely because our family has been engaging in tons-o-fun last week in Orlando.

This week the assignment is paper. Ummm that takes way too much time. I feel super overwhelmed at organizing our paper areas. I don't need more stress in my life. If it happens it happens.

This is why parents take there kids to this ridiculously priced park.

PURE JOY on your kids face!

(more to come)

I'm all about this...

I need accountability in just about every area of my life.

Accountability and ideas. I am weirdly very excited about this.

Five weeks

Five hot spots

Five new decluttered spots.

Yes, please.

what does one do with such pretty weather??

go to the park with uncle kc and aunt brittany, of course!
