New Look :)

Day 31. I posted this picture of my closet because I finally unpacked the boxes of my summer clothes. There are still like two boxes under the carport and some things in my trunk.. but who really cares? :)

Day 32. Holt's high school graduation. When we got to the stadium we realized that mom grabbed the wrong tripod and somebody was going to have to hold the video camera and video the entire ceremony. He volunteered himself where we could all watch instead of having to worry about that. Such a sweet boy :)

I posted this next picture the morning of his graduation...

More pictures from graduation night...











Great big happy family :)


Day 33. Spent the afternoon at the pool with some cute girls and their mommas :)





Day 34. Holt played ball at 11:00 and after sitting out there for about an hour I was just over the heat and wanted a pool so Flem and I went out to the pool for a little while Saturday afternoon


Day 35. Got in bed early Sunday night and realized that I didn't take any other pictures that day.. but what's not to love about an early bedtime? 

Day 36. Memorial Day. Monday morning Jess and I worked on some stuff for Hillary's bachelorette weekend and then later on that afternoon I went to the Wilson's to swim. Keith grilled hamburgers and Deb made homemade ice cream and then we swam a little bit more after it had stopped raining. 


Day 37. Spent the morning with my girls and then went to Andalusia for Ander's birthday dinner. I had Amelia while they went to SC's swim practice and took her with me to eat. She was pretty much perfect all throughout dinner. I texted Ashton this morning and told her that I was going to come to her for parenting lessons one day :)




Middle Child Syndrome :)







We are going to the beach this weekend for Hillary's bachelorette weekend!! I'm sure that will be my next post! Looking forward to some fun girl time and sunshine! :)

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
    and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
    and he will make straight your paths."

Sweet, sweet summertime! :)

I just spent two days working on an entire post... and it just erased e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g.
I am a little frustrated right now.. so I am about to just dump the photos on here and be done with it.
I left off with day 7 on "100 Happy Days" and yesterday was day thirty. I want to use my blog to keep up with it and what all goes on this summer. So much has already happened since I blogged last so I am going to try to do this very quickly where I don't get even more behind.

I don't know if I mentioned before but the 100 Happy Days is a challenge that I decided to do from another blog that I read and it just encourages you to find something happy in each day. I have enjoyed it so far and will probably continue it after the 100th day.

Day 8. I was still in school stuck inside all day studying and this cutie snapchatted me this "selfie" from her momma's phone. Made my day!

Day 9. This was my last day of undergraduate classes and I was studying for finals. I know that this doesn't really look like a "happy" picture but I think it's important to find joy in all circumstances. I am thankful that I have the ability to learn and get an education.

Day 10. This girl asked me to be one of her bridesmaids at church on Wednesday night. I can't wait to see what great things the Lord will do through your marriage. Love you and miss you sweet friend!

Day 11. I was home for the weekend and very much looking forward to summer.. this is our "Hayley's almost done face" :)


Day 12. Holt's last varsity baseball game. I couldn't be more proud of him and his team for making it to the third round of the playoffs. Excited that summer ball is starting this weekend and I get to watch him play some more ball!


Day 13. ADTC dance recital to watch my girls!

Day 14. Wrapping up another great, and final weekend at home before summer!

Day 15. This was our last night as roomies so we decided to ditch studying and packing and go out to eat :)

Day 16. Officially done with my undergrad at USA and headed home for the summer!

Day 17. MOH duties... helping address out of town guests invitations


Day 18. Emmy's preschool graduation. I cannot believe my girl is going to Kindergarten next year :(





Day 19. Day spent in Mobile packing up boxes with Ander and Anthony.





I guess these two were excited about me graduating :)


Day 20. USA Graduation. I can't believe I am graduated with a bachelor's degree. I feel like I just graduated high school. I am so thankful for my parents and everyone else who has encouraged me and pushed me along the way. OT School... here I come :)
 Anthony, Ander, Hill, Momma, Tyler, Holt, Granny, and Daddy




















Olive Garden after graduation... my choice, of course :)



Thankful for this sweet boy and all his help!

Day 21. Mother's Day. I seriously couldn't ask for a better mom and I'm so thankful for all that she does for me and my siblings!






Day 22. Graduation goodies from my sweet roomie, Jess! I seriously couldn't have asked for a better roommate!

Day 23. Jess and I went to Enterprise for the Sansom girls and Elizabeth's dance recital




Day 24. Holt's Class Day








Pancake dinner at the B&B :)

Day 25. Movie night with Anthony

Day 26. Road trip to Auburn to pick up couches. We make a good team :)



Day 27. Couples shower at the Registers for Hill and TD.









Day 28. Senior Recognition at church and Baccalaureate





Day 29. Spent the afternoon with my girls. It is always a fun surprise to be picked up from daycare unexpectedly! We went to the park and then to get snow cones. Love these girls to pieces!










Middle Child Syndrome.. it just comes natural :)


Day 30. So thankful that Anthony would spend his day helping me move out of my apartment just to move again in two short months. He went to Mobile twice and Auburn once just to help move me. I am sure my daddy and brother are thankful too since they didn't have to do it!

This summer has been good to me so far! I am definitely enjoying my time at home before I have to go back to school in the fall! Holt is graduating high school tomorrow night and will start ball again this weekend so we will be sweating it out at the ball field all weekend :)

Hope everyone is having a great week!

"The Lord is my strength and my shield;
    in him my heart trusts, and I am helped;
my heart exults,
    and with my song I give thanks to him."
Psalm 28:7
