What do you guys think??

PINK

This my friends is the picture of a girl with MAJOR Pink Eye in BOTH eyes. Pink eye isn't fun and it hurts and is annoying...and lets not even go there with those drops they give you to put into your kiddo's eyes. People walking by probably think that something horrible is happening inside our house. It is a full blown melt down most of the time... but this morning I am happy to report it went much better...

If there is anybody that reads my blog they might have noticed that Channing is totally into taking pictures with my phone right now. If it is on silent she wants the sound turned on because she loves the clicking sound it makes. She now knows how to turn it around to take 'selfies' haha... but this it out of control hahahahaha

After noticing the dreaded pink eye we headed up to the DR... confirming we were right on. 

They called in the drops but darn it wasn't ready when we got to Target soooo I browsed and Channing took more pictures...

CRAY CRAY at lunch. This is how we spend most of our meals at the table... she is obsessed with the mirror behind our dining table.... seriously we have to remind her to eat most of the time and she may have fallen out of her chair looking at herself a time or two. 

Duckface returns... what the heck haha?!

We got out the mermaid pool and I put her to work filling it up! 

 

 

That lasted all of ten minutes and before I knew it she was naked laying out on her beach towel.

 

This girl is a hoot! Be free Channing Layne be free hahahaha!

We capped off the day with 'planking' on dad... awesome.

We had a busy full fun weekend. It all started Friday with my girl posing like this for her morning picture!

 



My sweet friend Shelby had her sweet little boy Graham Thursday and I went to see them Friday!

 

Oh the cuteness!

My friend Julie gave Channing this UT Cheerleading Uniform for her birthday and Channing was begging to wear it all last week. So Friday night I put it on her and she LOVED it!!

 



This guy was hanging out on our front porch Friday night when we went out to watch the sunset and hang out. GROSS. 

Have you guys downloaded the App VINE?

 

Plain and simple IT.IS.AWESOME!

 

Go get it... you will love it.

 



We went to some of Chandler's parents friends farm Saturday afternoon into the evening. Channing LOVES to fish! It was so fun and peacful to be out there... plus they had Babe's chicken and that really hit the spot!

 

A BIG thank you to Alice and Stan for having us out! I am sure we will be back!

 



 

This may or may not have been the fish that flopped into the boat which caused me to jump into the back of the tiny paddle boat hahaha!

My MIL and Alice taking an evening paddle boat ride!

 

Yesterday morning we met my rents for breakfast at Crossroad's. I cannot get enough of their Sticky Buns! TO DIE FOR!

I have had my eye on these acrylic chairs from IKEA for weeks. I sold our chairs and found the exact chairs I wanted on Craig's List for HALF PRICE! YA HOO!



My morning outfit haha and you can see miss thang in the background refusing to take a picture with me... hahaha

1. What is your favorite kind of surprise? I guess all of them are unexpected or they wouldn't be surprises huh?! I am not sure which kind is my fave but may have to do with traveling or something like that!



2. Flowers or Chocolate? Chocolate... I love flowers but not usually for a special occasion. They die too fast and makes me sad. SO anything SEA SALT CARAMEL including Chocolate is fine!

 

3. What is your favorite summertime activity? Sitting outside on our patio or someone's patio with some white wine and my husband and Channing... low key family time.

It would be ideal if it were in NAPA....

4. Do you have any vacations planned this Summer? TBD

5. Favorite Summer Holiday? MY birthday... what? You don't think that's a holiday? Think again my friends... We celebrate it the whole Month of July!!

If you were wondering THIS cake would be appropriate for my 30th:

 

 

 

or this one:

 

 



6. Dream Vacation? I really would LOVE to go to Italy and Greece... BAD like BAD BAD!!!
