Rhodes to Anywhere

What a crazy last few days.  Dave was in North Carolina  for Momentum and I stayed behind getting us ready for our move tomorrow.  We are packed and ready to go.  It’s interesting as I was getting stuff together for our 3 months away, what little you truly do need for day to day.  It…

I’m being inspired by this new fall color from O.P.I. called,  “cuckoo for this color”  Technically it’s still 90+ degrees outside but I’m claiming a bit fall right now. And would love this for the fall too from Lisa Leonard Designs.  There is just something about the aqua green color I’m lovin right now. Feeling a…

You know you things are too busy when you don’t have time to…. Finish telling about time away in Myrtle.  It was truly the best vacation there we’ve ever had. Time with all our family was priceless.  Frankie enjoying the beach and ocean.  Emma out for hours on the boogie board.  Izzie running around the putt…

I have a million pictures and stories to sort through of the last 3 days.  They have been the best.  I always wonder how time passes so quickly.  It does.  Our trip is almost over.  I love that my grandparents and my children’s great grandparents are here each year.  It’s priceless time with them and…

I”ve posted recently on our friends the Davis Family and their son Sterling.  Roger and I go way back.  We met back in Crosspoint world back in the day and for a few years I was his event Coordinator for Student Life Camps.  Through the years our families lives always intersect at moments.  It’s been hard…

I really have the best mother ever.  Not only has she provided amazing childcare for my children as I have worked through the years but she also spends so much time engaging them in teachable moments even at the beach. Sunday morning she read the kids the book “The Bucket Filler”  It’s about we all…

A much needed date night is about to begin.  And the best part of it is the free babysitting that comes with it!

Good morning to  everyone on their “day off!”  Hope you are in store for a wonderful day.  These 5 matching kids are.  They have been up since 7AM asking to go to the beach again.  The beach yesterday was amazing.  Best in 5 years I think.  We purchased Emma a board for 2.99.  It’s her…

We arrived.  The kids played on the beach for 2 hrs last evening and we had to tell them we needed to go in.  FIRST time since having children that Dave and I sat on a towel and talked while the kids did their own thing.  They are becoming so independent.  A phase for now…

The bags have been packed.  The kids jumped out of bed this morning.  Dave is on a run right now… (what?!?!)  This could only mean one thing.  It is time to Vacate! Considering I have seen Dave a total of 1 hour in the past 2 days due to extremely busy schedules I AM SO…
