Hilton Head and The House Hunt Continues…

So last week I had a minor “Oh my god there’s only like 3 weekends left before school starts back and we have only made it to Hilton Head once this summer, pack up the pups and get in the car” moment.

So away we went!

Of course the pups got to visit their grama and grampa while their mom and dad snuck away to the beach….. they were more than happy with those arrangements though!

Look what we found in the freezer just waiting for us to drink up…. Daily’s Strawberry Daquiri’s with the liquor already added and ready to go you just freeze the container and drink it as it defrosts! SNV30797

Bob and Jane joined us later in the day and we got to play catch up with them for most of the afternoon… It was a gorgeous day for the beach!

I think every time we go to the beach Lou opts for the “outdoor” shower…. as his only form of showering :) SNV30798

Spanky clean (at least one of us is) and out to dinner at  Captain Woody’s! SNV30807

We got so burned but had a great time at the beach and actually got to play in the waves… YES, Hilton Head actually had waves (for some weird reason) last weekend!   

So on to this week….

The morning after my “late night ramblings”, I literally woke up to a phone calling saying Grady had an internship position open up… So I immediately called them, went there, interviewed and GOT IT all in the same day!

I feel so relieved knowing THIS is the right decision!!

I can’t wait to start it, I just wish that didn’t go hand in hand with starting school!! YIKES!

Anyway, enough about me…. Laura is still loving her new job and has been working like crazy! Luckily we have managed to eat dinner together most nights and Oscar is getting acquainted to living with his cousins…….again.

There’s Miss laura making friends with our neighbors and TJ getting his third hair cut of the summer!!DSC00653

This make look a bit harsh but it’s the only way to get that thick  hair off his neck! He was such a good boy and sat very nicely while his dad trimmed him all up! Milly kept checking on him and kissing him (yes, she was being the “giver” for once). I guess because I kept talking to Tuck telling him what a good boy he was being so Milly assumed something was wrong or that TJ was sad? DSC00648 (btw my basil is still kickin’)

Lastly, we found another house today that is a bit more realistic in terms of “fixing it up” I have a few pics that alex took and will post them soon! It too is in Roswell and we love the neighborhood and yard… it actually has a pool in the back yard but I’m not sure how much work it all needs? Anyway I will update with pics of that soon and keep ya posted on other potentials that we find out there! Btw I posted pics in last weeks blog of some shots mom snapped of the hippie fixer upper n case ya need a visual!

What a job house hunting is, who knew!!! 

Hope you’re enjoying your weekend, I just found out Billy and Angela will be visiting me next week!!! I can’t wait, too bad I booked our Mexico trip right in the middle of his trip to see me but I guess he will be too busy with a THREE day weeding while i’m gone anyway!!

So it all works out and a FULL HOUSE we will surely have….. just the way I like it!
