Tebow hunting

Last weekend, Tim Tebow took Williamsburg by storm. He was a guest mentor at a football camp and needless to say, the locals went a little crazy! My brothers and I decided to get in on it -- we hopped in the car and embarked on some serious Tebow hunting.

alas.
....................we found him. :)

riiiiiight in front of meeee



So...that's my hair. And that's him smiling at me whilst shaking my hand.


It was a glorious day. The sun was HOT and so was Timmy. I used the never-washing-my-hands-again line. I got blisters from my wedges and weird tanlines from my shirt. So worth it. No regrets. 

Okay, I'm done now. Bye.

hello houston

I am currently enjoying a 100% spontaneous trip to the Lone Star State for some much-needed sister time and an excuse to love on these two babies:

GABEY BABY


HALLIE GIRL

Taylor (the mama of the above angels) and myself are the original Morrow children; as middle schoolers we self-titled ourselves the "two-morrow girls." We were roommates since diapers until she went to college and then it was full fledge maid of honor mode shortly after. She's been starting her little family here in Texas ever since, exactly 1,352 miles away from me. This time with her -- as I phase out of one chapter of life into another -- has been such a blessing. We've been mostly passing the time playing with the kiddies, lazing around at the pool, cooking mean dinners, watching netflix, and reading/discussing books. I needed this getaway. Leaving college and entering into newfound adulthood called for a little vacation so I could gather my wits, if you will. I needed the opportunity to talk to my big sis all day long, to rack her brain and ask her deep questions about life. She is ooozzzzinggggg with wisdom!!! I am like a sponge absorbing every bit of it and neatly stacking it in my mind for safekeeping. So, yes, I'm peacefully enjoying the late nights, the exchange of recipes, the diaper changing, the errand running, the advice giving, the laughing, the sunny Texas sky, and the baby kisses!!

No one gets you like a sister can. Even me...my unemployed, fresh out of college self...she totally loves me. And always has.

Today at Target, while shopping for who knows what, but steering clear of the baby girl section before going crazy on all things pink and trendy, we saw a simple black 5X7 frame with the words, "a sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost." We both smiled a little and sighed.

Ain't that the truth.
