October #moeeveryday2016

Just a few October pictures to share!

I didn't get to visit with Hadley and Harper in October but Jennifer made sure to send me pictures.
They visited a pumpkin patch and picked out the perfect pumpkin!




I attended a Women in Business event in Augusta. Palm Village Augusta provided the door prize for the event! Is it bad that I was hoping I would win it? 

My mom and our friend Debbie came to visit for a weekend. We had a party at the store, saw Christmas decorations at Hobby Lobby, and I tried out a new church in town. It was a busy and fun weekend!

Sade and I got to attend a fundraiser that our friend Rachel organized. It was a fun filled Lilly night! 


I had to go to Office Depot for supplies and found my favorite pen Buy 2 get 1 free! I couldn't pass it up!

We hosted a make your own Lilly pumpkin event at the store! Here are a few of the pumpkins we made for PV Augusta.


Just because these girls make my heart happy!

Another great picture from Jennifer!
Myles, Hadley, Harper, and McKinley showing off their carved pumpkins.

The last weekend of October I traveled home for Piper's first birthday! But my first stop was Palm Village Asheville! 

But the most important stop was to celebrate this cuties first birthday! 

Clearly I know what I am doing with babies...


The next day I spent time visiting my Mamaw Mary. She told me not to post this on that Facebook. 

The girls were Alice in Wonderland and the Mad Hatter! 

The leaves are still green in Augusta so I enjoyed the beautiful fall leaves at home. 

I voted early in Lilly and pearls!

Also in October I started the Pure Barre See Your Strong challenge. I can't wait to share my thoughts on the challenge and getting back to the barre after a long break!

September #moeeveryday2016

A little late but here is a recap of September!

Palm Village Augusta finally made it on the store locator page on Lillypulitzer.com! Now everyone that looks will know we have a store in Augusta!

When I was leaving a meeting in downtown Augusta I snapped this picture. This is my favorite time of day. I love how the trees look against the sky. 


Hadley and Harper will sometimes get Jennifer's phone and text me and send pictures! This was one...I'm pretty impressed by their selfie skills!

I didn't go on this trip but Jennifer sent me this picture. Getting pictures of the girls are always a favorite. 

I took a few days off and went to visit my WBFF, Lesa in Knoxville. Lesa has the cutest dog ever! Ms. Nori is a Cavalier King Charles! I swear she liked me...kind of doesn't look like it. 

While I was in Knoxville I went to a Tennessee football game! 

I'm not a Tennessee fan but I am a Peyton Manning fan! 

It was hot! We were high but I loved spending time with these girls! 

After I left Knoxville I visited the Asheville store! I spent some time with these lovely ladies! 


I added some fall decorations to my little home. I am hoping we have some cooler temps!

Hadley and Harper's First day of First Grade



On August 29th, Hadley and Harper started First grade!
During one of my trips this summer I asked the girls if they wanted me to go to school with them on the first day. They were like yes! So I drove up on Sunday night to be with them for their first day.


They wore Lilly dresses that mom and I gave them. 

Book bag picture!

Loaded up and ready to go. 



I am thankful that I got to walk in with the girls and meet their teacher for the year! 

Last year I interviewed the girls before they started Kindergarten.  I thought it would be fun to do it again and compare their answers.

August #moeeveryday2016

August

August in Augusta!

Just doing a little instagram modeling for Palm Village Augusta! 


Sade tried to teach me the trick to taking selfies.
#notsureiwasagoodstudent

I had to take a few unexpected trips to visit the girls during August. Not that I am complaining about spending time with these cuties. Hadley and Harper are always fun to spend time with.

I thought standing on the train tracks for a picture would be cool but the girls didn't think so. They were slightly scared. 

Once we crossed the train tracks we ran into the Lilly store in Southern Pines. The girls had a mini fashion show! 

Mom (aka Granny Janet) came for a visit too! The girls loved listening to her read a story.

And Winston enjoyed resting on my leg! 


So this happened in August. I got my first flat tire. I wish I could tell you that I changed it myself but I just cried and had to find a place to fix it for me.

Jennifer sent me this sweet picture of the girls sometime during the month. 


We got some new arrivals at the store. I had to add this dress to my collection!

I was starting to feel homesick when I got a call from Mom asking if she and dad could come for a visit. Of course I said yes! 
We went to Red Robin to eat dinner. The girls and Myles really like Red Robin so we wanted to check it out. It was pretty good! 

Every August Lilly Pulitzer has an online sale. Palm Village will match the online prices. It was a super busy day and I was exhausted! 


Last day of the sale!!


One of the highlights of the month was meeting up with this crew for our Spring buying trip! I know I say it all the time but I love my Palm Village family! 


And just like that the girls were 1st graders! 
My heart is crying and smiling at the same time. Time needs to slow down.

July 2016 #moeeveryday2016

July...

Mom and I took a small vacation to visit the girls and Jennifer.  Snapchat became a favorite of the girls. They liked to see what pictures they could take with the different filters. 


My super cute and sweet friend Amber surprised me with a quick visit this summer. She came in for a few hours. We got to have lunch and catch up! She also shared some super exciting news with me...she's having a baby! Amber will be such a great mom!

Another surprise visitor came to visit. 
Eleanor surprised us at Palm Village Augusta this summer. 

I enjoyed a weekend off and a nice dinner with some go the Palm Village Asheville girls! 


Hadley and Harper took golf lessons this summer! I was happy they got to wear the cute Masters dresses I got for them! 

I am currently obsessed with this cookie butter!

I sent this baby shift to Baby Piper a few weeks ago. I was happy to see it fit and Lauren sent me this picture. I can't wait to go home and see this sweet girl! 

I picked up this frame for the girls pictures. 
I sing this song to the girls every time I see them. I thought it was fitting to hang on my wall.


New fall arrivals at Palm Village Augusta! 

This is one of my favorite quotes. 
It is just a good reminder in this crazy world we live in. 

Carmella is one of our favorites at Palm Village.

I had to make a last minute trip to visit my sweet girls.  
I taught the girls the old butterfly dance! Their laughs are always my favorite! 


I have never been one to wish summer away. Summer was always my favorite season when I was a teacher. I had almost two months off from school and I loved it! I still love summer but I am ready for some cooler evenings and mornings!  I can't wait for September. But I am not sure September will be any cooler in Augusta! 

Thanks for reading!
