Happy Father's Day! ~ 2019

One of my favorite holidays to celebrate with my little tribe is Father's Day because my children truly have one of the best men this world could offer them. I believe he is "THE BEST"! And he deserves a special day, set aside, just for him.

Beauty & The Beach!

I've never been happier for two people in my entire life. These two are so blessed to have each other.  And I am doubly blessed to be able to watch. 

Sometimes in life...

There's NOTHING quite like 

The bond between...

A father and his little princess!

I love these beautiful and real facial expressions between these two.

Sweet smiles and simple giggles.

Strength and love accompanied with goofiness and laughter.

These two fill my heart with gladness.

Thank you Jesus!

Fourth Of July '17 @Myrtle Beach

Eeeekkkkkk! I am just NOW blogging about the Fourth of July?!?! Good grief.  Can you spell  B-E-H-I-N-D.  

The morning of the 4th, I took a walk on the beach, with my dogs, and made sure to capture our great product, LipSense, sporting the American Flag.  Hehe.  

I came well prepared with all kinds of goodies for the 4th.  Well, a suitcase filled, and more, to be exact.

The 4th of July is always a wonderful memory for us.  We have sorta created a tradition of spending the day on the beach, getting decked out in our 4th of July attire, and going to eat dinner at The House Of Blues.

My kids' morning started out with a red, "white", and blue breakfast.  Mom of the year over here, served her kids cupcakes. Geez. I really was a cool mom this morning.  

 I also decorated our beach condo and laid out all of the goodies that I brought.

I even made my dogs a 4th of July breakfast.  

 BEACH TIME!

 So that was no different on July 4, 2017.

Everyone enjoyed the HOT day!  I love watching my family enjoy the waves with their daddy.  I wish I could say that I do it too.... I can't let my hair down long enough to enjoy that, both literally and figuratively speaking.  

 Daddy to the rescue though... he's like a GIANT KID.

 

 Riding waves with dad always creates those sweet smile.  

Ha! I tried to capture a cute, BEHIND photo... whoopsie.... where is Jax?

Sigh... it's just quite impossible to capture a GOOD group photo.  This is real life people.  

 

We interrupt this fun beach day to have a fun American Flag snack.  

It was not my kids, but I, who created this flag out of my food.  I know, I know. #EveryLittleThingIsABIGDeal 

After a beautiful day on the beach, my crew got all dressed up in their red, white, and blue clothing.  My sweet Liley is sporting JoJo Siwa's American flag bow, from Justice. I love it. Her dress was a "Rare Tradition" dress from Belk.

Jax Mr. Handsome was sporting the cutest outfit from both Old Navy and Target.  The shirt was from Old Navy and the shorts were from Target.  

We may have trouble taking group shots, but the individual shots we have on point.

 Love her.

 Ty had on a really awesome shirt from Old Navy too.  Way to go this year Old Navy!

Of to dinner we go... House of Blues.

 What an awesome shot of Liley with her main squeeze.

 I can't get enough of this kid.  Just so special and sweet (MOST days).

They drive me crazy, but they make me equally as proud.  I cannot complain, that is for sure.  Three healthy, happy, beautiful, and SMART children.  If we could just get the sibling rivalry under raps, I think motherhood would be perfect.

FINALLY.  I got in a PHOTO.  I was ON THIS VACATION after all.  LOL!

After dinner, Lilah and Darren had a little father/daughter dance.  You can tel Lilah was enjoying herself, but was also bashful.  

 Foreshadowing into her future wedding day! Sniff, sniff. 

 Daddy spinning Lilah around.  Can you see her sweet self smiling up at him?

Sadly, we missed fireworks.  Yea, I know.  Everyone was upset and mad.  The good thing is... you can see them EVERY NIGHT at Myrtle Beach, no matter what time of year it is.  AND... there is ALWAYS  next year, Lord willing.
