We had an amazing weekend full of time with Maddie Grace’s Grandma (my mom) at her beach house on Tybee Island. My mom and her husband currently live in Germany, although they kept their houses here in Georgia, so we don’t get to see her all that often. We are being crazy and taking MG on the long flight to go to Europe in September though and that will be the next time we see her!
It stinks that the only time we had to visit Grandma this time was a weekend. Not even a long weekend. But we made the most of it. Saturday we got up and headed to the beach before it started storming. Maddie Grace is a total beach babe and loved splashing in the water. I’m pretty sure she is happiest at the beach. When the storms rolled in we packed up and went back to my moms house and my dad came over for a low country boil.
Sunday my dad grilled out at his house and my mom came over and we grilled out and spent time together (it was a little rainy again) before we had to head back to Atlanta. It might not sound like we did a lot, but sometimes those are the best weekends, especially when you are spending time with family.
We are leaving for New Jersey on Thursday to visit Tom’s family and don’t get back until Monday evening so I’ve been running around like crazy trying to get ready for this trip as well. I’m so excited to visit all of Tom’s cousins and to get to meet another new baby in the family but traveling stresses me out, especially now that MG is at the age where she hates sitting still but hopefully this will be a good precursor to our long flight with her this Fall.
Hope everyone is having a great start to the holiday week and have amazing plans for this weekend!

Thank you!
MG is adorable and I LOVE her romper! I'm glad you got to spend time with your mom, even if it was a short visit. Europe in the fall will be amazing!
Thank you!!! Yes I can't wait – so long as we survive the plane ride haha!
We are headed up to my in-laws house to see Oma and Opa tomorrow, really looking forward to spending 4th of July up there and doing all the things my husband did for the 4th as a kid and my eldest son is looking forward to seeing his Oma and Opa. Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip stateside.
Thank you! I hope you have a great time that sounds fun!!
So nice to have a house to visit that belongs to family. Spending down time with family it an awesome way to do a quick getaway. Enjoy your travels
Yes it is!! Thank you very much!
I love that floral outfit she's got on! We traveled 8 hours on Tuesday to get to New York, and we're visiting my husband's grandmother. We've got our toddler with us, whom his grandma hasn't seen since last September I think, so it'll be cool for her to see how much she's grown!
Thank you!! That sounds like so much fun! That's what we are doing this weekend but with my husband's grandfather 🙂
