Clemson Weekend

Over the past 8 years my college friends have gotten together for various events, but always for a home football game! As I am writing this, I realized I've never actually posted about these weekends, so I'm going to find those pictures and do a separate post on that! 

As we started our e-mail chain about this year's game, a very wise Spangler suggested maybe combining football weekend and mountain house weekend into one, since ya know, tailgating all day with children isn't the most fun thing in the world. 

So, the 2015 mountain house football weekend was created. It was the best decision. We picked an away game and a house that was centrally located to everyone in NC. We left town after work Thursday night and arrived at 1am. It was a long, dark drive, but totally worth it not to have to be in the car again for 2 whole days! 

I thought I would take more pictures, but as it was, I was too buys catching up with friends and chasing toddlers! Here is what I did get though! 

early morning window watching

Friday morning grocery run. 

Some sweet 3 year olds playing together! They really had so much fun all weekend! 

Cale got a motorized car stuck in his mama's hair! 

Football watching. That's a lot of children. 
Others arrived Friday and Saturday and in total we had: 14 adults, 4 3-year olds, 2 18-month olds and 3 1-year olds! That's 9 kids between 5 families and it is so fun! 

Then, of course, we were so wrapped up in the game we forgot the quintessential couch picture when everyone was there, but we got this one! 

They've certainly grown since June!! 



Oh, these pictures make me laugh so much. I'm so glad we have friends that will all travel to see each other and make this one weekend a priority. What fun memories have already been made and will continue!

going public

Well...there is not really any other way to say this but... Aaron and I are having a BABY! Yep, Baby Schultz should be arriving this Labor Day. We could not be more thrilled about the news! Once we got through the 12-week ultrasound, which is what this picture is from, we were ready to spread the news! I know there are still lots of people who should have gotten phone calls, and for that I apologize that you are finding out now, but I was just ready to get it out there! And now I will answer the questions that typically follow up this kind of announcement. 1. Were you trying? Well....not exactly. From the beginning I have felt pretty strongly that we were not in control of this whole baby-making situation. I have known many women who got pregnant on birth control, or when they didn't even know they could, and those who "planned" it and then it has taken longer than hoped. I've just always been pretty sure that when the Lord determined we were ready, He'd

spill about your LOVE link-up

I'm linking up with A. Liz Adventures today for this fun little questionnaire!  {1} Describe your dating life prior to finding your husband/boyfriend/fiance. I had 2 serious relationships before meeting Aaron, one in high school (as serious as that can be, ha!) and one in college. Before meeting Aaron, I had been single for about 3 1/2 years. {2} Describe your husband/boyfriend/fiance in one word. How would he describe you in one word?   The word I always use to describe Aaron is steady. He is the calm to my crazy. Also, is faith is the most consistent and steadfast I've ever seen. He says to describe me in 1 word is too hard.  {3} You had a really silly fight. Embarrassing silly. What was it about? Our most frequent fight is over the dishes. And that seems silly to me.  {4} In three sentences (and only three!), describe where you both hope to be in 5 years. Surrounded by family and friends, probably with another child, in a house with a front porch

mid-month confessions

Y'all. I am SO excited for the return of mid-month confessions!! Elizabeth, over at Teaching Sam & Scout , used to do mid-week confessions that I linked up for a couple of times before her original blog shut down. Since starting at a new space and kind of rebranding herself, she's decided to get them going again, but once a month instead of once a week. AND she's partnered up with one of my best girls from Clemson, Heather! I'm really looking forward to this link-up each month! - First, I have to say, today was just one of those days, so this might be brief. - On Sunday, our youngest child, Ben (4 weeks) spit up straight into the mouth of our friend Geoff who was holding him. Yes, possibly more embarrassing for Geoff, but I felt terrible!   - When I wrote our family goals for 2015 on the blog, I purposefully left off one thing; brush Canon's teeth once a day. YES, I know. We're terrible and haven't quite worked it into our routines yet so
