Girls Weekend in Palmetto Bluff

Girls weekend 2023 ~ Amanda, Aimee, Carissa, Diana and I spent two nights at the Montage at Palmetto Bluff.  We flew into Savannah and Aimee picked us up from the airport.  We had lunch at the Thompson in Savannah and then drove 30 minutes to Palmetto Bluff.  We checked into our cute little house and had drinks and dinner at River House.  Before dinner we had drinks at a speakeasy downstairs.  It was a hidden door behind a mirror and we almost missed it, but luckily we found it.  We had the best time exploring the area and hanging out.  We even rented kayaks and watched the sunset.  We always have the best time together and always wish we had more time.  Hopefully we can make that happen in 2024.

Liam's 8th Birthday Soccer Party

Liam and his best friend Josh had a joint 8th birthday party at Lakeshore.  The theme was soccer and the boys had a great time.  They had a soccer game, dodgeball game, jumping house and other fun games.  We had pizza, fruit and popcorn along with a special soccer themed cake.  They invited all the boys from both classes and asked them to wear their favorite jersey.   Liam wore his Arsenal soccer jersey that Ethan got him and Grayson wore his Chicago City Soccer jersey.  Liam and Josh had such a great time at their party.  Afterwards Josh came over and they had a cook off.  They made eggs (with a little help), avocado toast, a smoothie and a side of fruit.  It was so cute to watch them - they even set a timer like they do on the show.  Liam got tons of nice gifts from his friends including gift cards to Target, Dick's Sporting Goods, Building Blocks, Amazon and cash.  He also got many types of legos, books, games, nerf gun and a flying ace that has three devices in one.  We gave him a hover board (which was returned because he broke his arm), clothes, we bought him 1 share of each of the following stocks: Apple, Tesla and iShares QQQ (from Oma as well), books, special bank and a 3-D printer.  He has a lot of money saved up so we will have to see what he decides to buy.  He loves to hoard his cash in his new special bank with a code, but I'm trying to teach him about investing his money.  Happy 8th Birthday to our amazing little boy!  We love you more than numbers.
