Rembering Kidd Kraddick

Pic credit: Boot Campaign Facebook page

Shortly before bedtime last night, I started hearing word that radio and TV personality Kidd Kraddick had passed away. I immediately thought, "This has to be a joke". Sadly, it was not.

I moved to TX in the 8th grade, waaaay back in the early 90s. I listened to Kidd Kraddick every morning on the way to school. Later, when I had my own kids, we would listen together every morning.

We moved from TX a few years ago and were so excited when we found out the Kidd Kraddick in the Morning show was broadcasted in Savannah, GA. We listened every morning in the car and I usually would listen more once I got home via the I Heart Radio app.

My story is pretty much the same as anyone else's... Over the years, we have come to think of Kidd (Kellie, J-Si, Jenna, and Big Al) as our friends. We feel like we know a lot about them. Today I remember Kidd as an amazing father to Caroline and a champion of kids, military members and families in need. I pray for his daughter, radio family, friends, and listeners.

Our mornings won't be the same without you, Kidd.

Rest in Peace.

Jacksonville Trip

Last week I took my kids down to visit family in FL and stayed for a few days before coming back home to SC.

We visited the Tree Hill Nature Center

It was raining so we walked around the grounds a little bit and checked out some of the animals outside. Nice place and inexpensive!

The next day we went to The Cummer Museum of Art and Gardens. You can't take pictures inside the galleries, so all I got to document were the gardens, which were stunning.

Nice view of downtown from the edge of the gardens

We also went to an interesting restaurant called Clark's Fish Camp.

There were dead animals all over the place:

I had the mahi basket which was pretty good. I ate it all though before I thought about taking a picture of it ;)

While the kids stayed in FL, I went home and hung out with my husband for a few days. We were able to go see a movie, which never happens!! We saw The Heat which was really funny.

I wore this super cute Luxe Craving necklace (c/o) for my day date with the hubs.

Btw, I am loving that the Instagram filter turned my hair red. I totally want to dye it that color now!

Anyone know of any other fun places to visit in JAX for my next trip down there??

Lately and Wednesday Wants

It's been awhile...

We *finally* found a house. The home inspection is tomorrow and we hope to close in mid-August. I have been busy getting e-mails off to the loan officer. I have never scanned so many papers in my life, y'all.

Now that I am trying not to shop for anything, I reallly want to buy stuff!!

Here are some things I'm wanting for the new house and for me!!
