Family & SkyZone
I am TIRED tonight, and it’s not even 8pm yet… So I’ll just share some photos and hit the high points.
Emmie loves her Pepaw. (She also loves that he gives her donut holes, which she’s tightly clutching in that tiny fist.)

Baby’s First Pool Day!
So this Saturday started out with the boys practically begging for donuts, so after they twisted our arms, we gave in. Daddy drove them to Donut Kingdom, and they brought back a dozen, and a bag of donut holes. Also, you can see Emmie was still loving her stuffed Doxie doggie.

Fabulous Friday
As I walked into Emerson’s class this morning at school, her teacher from her old room was in there, and Emmie was so excited to see her! She reached for her to give her a hug, and it was adorable. Moments like that make it a little bit easier to leave my girl every day.

Crock-Pot Chicken Burrito Bowls
Today on my lunch break, I ran home super fast to throw some good stuff in the Crock-Pot. Then tonight for dinner, we had the most delicious meal! I didn’t make up this recipe myself, but I do make it all the time, and we love it around here. It’s the easiest thing ever, and comes out perfect every single time. I’ve made this for guests, and everyone is always impressed. I’ve also shared the recipe with co-workers, and then they’ve raved about how much they liked it too. In case you’re interested, here’s what you need to know…
Recipe:
- Frozen chicken breasts (I usually use 4)
- Splash of olive oil
- Splash of red wine vinegar
- 1 package dry ranch seasoning mix
- 1 package chili seasoning
Throw chicken in pot, top with the liquids, then top with the seasonings. Turn on low for 6 hours, or high for 4. Shred with forks, put back in liquid, leave on warm for 10 minutes. Eat & enjoy!

Christmas in July
Of course the skies opened up right as it was time to leave work this afternoon. It was absolutely flooding, and there was a 4-foot wide river flowing down the street in front our building. The bottom half of my body was drenched, and my sandals were completely soaked and squishy.

Mini Panic Attack
So first off, let’s just hit the highlights of the good things from today.
1. Ben Napier from “Home Town” on HGTV “liked” my tweet this morning, and I just about died. Yall may remember, it was Erin Napier’s daily journal blog that inspired me to start writing daily as well, and I just really, really like them as people, and I love their TV show.

Chaotic Monday Morning
Well today started out in pure chaos! Wcome to Monday with five people in the house, right?! Emmie woke up super early again, around 4:45, but luckily she soothed herself back to sleep after a bit. Fast forward to roughly 7am while the boys are getting ready for summer camp, and Gabe realizes he left his tennis shoes in his mom’s car, in South Carolina. And that caused a major meltdown, and a minor fight between the two boys, and some yelling from Daddy.(Just being honest here, folks!)

Sweet Sunday & an Exciting Encounter
Today was a great Sunday, y’all! The morning started off with an early morning wake-up from our baby girl around 5:30am. Normally, she sleeps until we wake her up around 7am, so I’m not sure why she woke up so early. I finally got her to take a nap with me in the recliner for an hour, and I loved these snuggles, since they’re so super rare at her current very busy stage.

Saturday Sloppy Joe’s
This morning was our women’s breakfast event at church, and it went really well! The breakfast foods we’re yummy, the coffee was piping hot and I got to spend time with my mama, grandmother and aunt. We also heard a great testimony from my church friend Megan (not my sister). For my solo, I sang “Choose To Love” by Francesca Battistelli, and it went well! The track was super quiet though so I missed my cue, and I had to ask them to restart it, twice… But the third time was the charm, and then it went great!

Wild Friday Night
This morning, they were eating breakfast early at daycare, so we got to see Emerson get started on her blueberry muffin and apples. All the babies sit around the tables together, in their little chairs, and it’s just so precious!
