Southern Mama of Two

WHAT WE'RE EATING THIS WEEK: Monday- fresh fried squash, minute steaks, rice & gravy, mac & cheese Tuesday- fresh green beans and corn bread Wednesday- chicken alfredo Thursday- shrimp hibachi Friday- probably grab something   WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT: The beach, Disney, anywhere but here haha! I feel so bad about jumping the gun on our beach trip this year, I wish I would have waited till it was a little warmer, so we could enjoy it more!     WHAT I'M LOVING: warm weather and getting to spend more time outside!   WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO: Brynlee finished up her first year of tiny t-ball a few weeks ago! My mom and I took my girls and my nephews to see Aladdin last weekend! If you haven't went, you need to go ASAP!! We absolutely loved the movie! We are in full "farm" mode around here! Our cotton and corn have been planted and are growing great, and we just finished baling our first cutting of hay....

Happy Friday and here is to a three day weekend whoop whoop! I am linking up with Erika  to bring you my Friday Favorites.   Spending some much needed time with my husband this past weekend! Now that planting season is here, he isn't home as much, so any extra time we get together is cherished. Sunday night we grilled s'mores after supper! We love doing this when the weather is warm.     Wednesday would have been the girls "official" last day of school, but Monday after Ryleigh's first test she started feeling terrible. My mom took her to the doctor and she was diagnosed with strep and flu type A!! I honestly cannot believe those things are still floating around this time of year, but they are! After speaking with the school they informed me that Ryleigh did not have to come make up the rest of her tests because she was sick, so summer break started early for us.   While Ryleigh was at the doctor, Brynlee played with her cousins! Look h...

Happy late Mother's Day to all my sweet mama bloggers! I hope you had a wonderful day that was all about Y-O-U.   I started my mother's day off with church with my little family. I picked out my gift this year because let's face it, my husband hates trying to buy things for me! I ordered a pair of Tory Burch sandals and I am in love with them. I can wear them with almost everything and their comfortable. Bk & Ry's dresses are on sale here !   After church we had lunch then went to Walt's parents house to give his mom her present. After that we went to my mom's house to give her present to her and the girls swam for a little while. We rode with my mom to the church and put flowers on my great grand mother's grave. We stopped by my grand parents house before we went home to see my grand mother.   Mother's Day was pretty relaxing and we spent time with family, which is what I enjoy most of all! ---------------------------...

Happy Monday! It feels like the weekend flew by, but we had a good one! The girls had their annual dance recital Thursday night and they did SO good! My cousin sent me this picture and my mama heart can't take it! I cannot believe my baby is growing up so fast, and is so beautiful! Seeing her on stage dancing brought back so many happy memories from my dancing years!!   Friday night BK had a t-ball game then she went to stay with my mom, Ry spent the night with my aunt, so I went home and called it an early night because I was exhausted!   Saturday we picked up my husband's daughter for the day, and all three girls were home so I had to snap a picture of the soon to be big sister! We are sooooo excited about baby #4!!!   BK wanted to ride the side by side and check out the corn, and that is just what we did!   Saturday afternoon we grilled and enjoyed playing outside since the weather was so nice!   Sunday ...

I feel like I have been completely absent from my blog lately, but life has gotten in the way! We have some exciting news to announce now that it is public... We are welcoming another sweet baby into our family in November. We are so excited and ask that you keep us in your prayers over the next few months!   Last weekend we took a weekend trip to the beach for Easter, and even though it was pretty chilly, we had a good time! We stopped in Mobile for lunch at Felix's Fish Camp. Once we got into Foley we decided to stop by OWA and check out the amusement park. The girls had a blast riding everything, and somehow Ryleigh talked Walt into riding a monster roller coaster!! The only thing I was interested in...   We rode several rides then it was time to check into our condo. We stayed at Crystal Towers in Gulf Shores and managed to score a room on the 20th floor! Let me tell ya'll about the view, oh my it was gorgeous!!     We unpa...
