From Greenville to St. Simons...

I've had such a blessed couple of weeks getting to feel like I'm on vacation, and this is during school mind you-- it's been great!
Last weekend I accompanied Matthew to one of my favorite little cities-- Greenville, SC. It's just 2 hours from Atlanta, and we were only there for the day, but we couldn't stop talking about how it felt like we were on vacation. He had his local long drive qualifier-- which he WON, with a 400 yard drive and a brand new driver he'd never used! Crazy!  He goes to Regionals in Greensboro, NC later next month, and if he qualifies there, it's off to Mesquite again for the World Championship!
Well, the rest of the day was spent in the quaint town of Greenville. We saw a great movie-- Knight and Day (I was pleasantly surprise- it was hysterical!)-- visited my favorite coffee shop- Underground Coffee, had a great southern gourmet meal, and then stopped back by Underground Coffee before heading back to the ATL.
Then this past weekend we headed to down St. Simons with his brother, Kevin, to visit his family for the 4th of July. Matthew's mom fed us like kings everyday, we enjoyed some much needed relaxation and got some sun on the beach.  It was wonderful! Oh and I have to mention how awesome I was at this game of rolling a golf ball into a hole of sand. I beat Matthew 3 times! It was awesome!


                                  
Matthew wanted to beat me just once--but the CubBuster was too good!












Me with the Leggett Ladies. Gotta love um!

I didn't quite make this one, but we got to see the fireworks on the beach! This picture doesn't do the hour long show justice.






Welp...  only a week and a half left of summer classes, I can do it! Happy belated 4th!

Break from the blog

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines. I re...

A little color

School has officially started for me, and my teachable teenagers will be booming into my room in two days! I can't wait to shape those minds of our future! :)   However, my summer projects are a great reminder of the joyful color and peace I had for two months. :) I found this great idea on Pinterest and thought it would add a great accent color to any room in my home! I still have to put it all together, but here's what the finished product will look like with a little more subtle turquoise: I have it all painted and ready to be assembled!  More pics upon completion! (may be quite a while though now that school is in session... hope you weren't holding your breath.) ~CC
