Five Question Friday


Happy Friday everyone!!! It's finally almost the weekend!!

Here is this week's edition of 5QF. If you would like to play along, head over to My Little Life and link up!

1. What do you think makes a good friend, or friendship? Trust, Loyalty, Honesty... Being there for someone through thick and thin, even if you don't agree in all they do but being honest about it, and always sharing a good laugh with one another.

2. What is the last thing you bought & later regretted? A car, haha... Well it wasn't til months later... It's not that I didn't like the car its that my husband got a company car so now it sits in the driveway all day long :-(

3. Have you ever had a prank played on you? Hmmm, not that I can remember off the top of my head... but I am sure I have.

4. What is your favorite theme park? Islands of Adventures!!! I love roller coasters!

5. Have you ever seen someone else give birth? No.. and not sure I would want to. I didn't even want to see myself give birth.. LOL

And even more exciting, my BFF/cousin is having her baby boy today! We can't wait to meet the newest edition to the family. Check back later for updates and pictures.

Happy Thursday!

Wow Wow Wednesday's!

We met up with our playgroup today at the Inflatable Fun Factory. We have been to several Bounce House places but this one by far is the best! It's not super big but the bounce houses and slides are awesome! All the kids had a blast. Camryn wanted to join the fun so bad but she is still a tad bit small. Before I know it she'll be jumping around with all the kids. This is definitely a good possibility for Payten's birthday party next year :-)

Happy 8 Month's Camryn!



Enjoy the video! Pictures to come soon :-)

ps - Excuse my voice, I am sick.

Under the weather....

Sorry for the lack of blogging... I have been feeling under the weather since last Thursday. No, I am NOT pregnant :-) That seems to be the first question someone asks when I say I am not feeling well. I am thinking its allergies but not 100%. I am all stuffed up and my head hurts :-( I'll give it another day or two before I head to the doctors.

Since I didn't blog much last week I need to play catch up. Thursday, the girls and I went over to the Splash Pad with our play group. It was was a lot of fun. Payten has a blast every time we go and Camryn enjoys watching all the crazy kids :-)



Friday evening, I met a few girlfriends at Bahama Breeze for a GIRLS ONLY night out. It was great having adult conversations and catching up. I am hoping we can make this like a monthly thing. I really enjoyed it.



My weekend was kind of a blur. Saturday we had a yard sale. Remind me NEVER to have one in June! It was so hot! Just unbearable! It was worth the money we made but still. The fall is so much better to have one. I was a bit sad to part with some of the girls clothes and things but there is just no room to store all this stuff. After being in the sweltering heat for hours, we enjoyed a nice swim in the pool.

Yesterday we had a yummy breakfast at Cracker Barrel, and spent the rest of the day cleaning/organizing. I did sneak in a 3 hour nap since I wasn't feeling too good.

I am hoping we get to hit the water park's next weekend :-) Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Weekend Review - Fisher Price Jumperoo



Welcome to the Weekend Review with The Life of Rylie...and Bryce too!, The Florida Hogans, and Angelica's Awesome Adventures! We would love for you to link up your reviews at the bottom and let everyone know about your favorite products! Reviews with giveaways are awesome too!

One of my favorite "entertainment" toys for the girls is the Fisher-Price Rainforest Jumperoo. It is my favorite by far! We have an exersauer as well but the girls seemed to love this so much more.


The music and lights keep them entertained and laughing for quite sometime. Both girls were about 4 1/2 months when they were able to play in this. Camryn is 8 months now and is still loving it! I highly recommend this to first time mom's as one of those must have's. Since purchasing this one, Fisher Price has came out with a few more Jumperoo's that are very similar just different "theme". They are Ocean Wonders and Laugh 'n' Learn.


Disclaimer: This opinion is my own. I wrote this review without the request of the company. They have not contacted me in any way nor did they supply me with any products.

Memorial Day Weekend

Oh how I love long weekends! Why can't we have these every weekend? Three days is just perfect. There is enough time to have fun and even manage to get a little house work done :-)

Friday night we kicked off our weekend by heading over to the Ellison's to test out the bounce house for Braelyn's birthday party. The kids had a blast jumping and sliding. They worked up an appetite quick, so we headed over to Sonic for dinner and some ice cream (Payten's favorite).

Saturday we enjoyed the afternoon with friends at Braelyn's 1st Birthday party. After the party, Payten, Dana, and I headed down to my parents for a "girls" weekend. There was a circus in town so we went to check it out. Payten had a blast with her Mema & Poppy, oh yeah and with Boots and Dora too. :-) She loved all the animals, even Jeffery the giraffe.

After the circus, we had some yummy pizza at a new pizza place in town. It was soo good! Why can't we have a good pizzeria like this by us? It kind of is a good thing that way we don't pack on the pounds!

Sunday we roasted in the HOT Florida sun at the beach. The Gulf of Mexico was soo warm, so that is where we spent most of our day. Doesn't get any better then that!

So glad we got to spend the weekend with great family and friends! Looking forward to another weekend like that soon! Now on to our busy week.... Happy Tuesday!
