MIA!

Wow, it feels like forever since I've posted on here, my apologizes! Life seems to be busier than I could have ever imagined! I miss the days when life was slow and seemed to drag on.... now things seem to happen much too quickley. I wish i had a pause button so I could take a minute to just breathe in the simple wonderful things that make each day such a blessing. I worry that sometimes we are in constant fast forward mode that we miss little moments! I am going to really try to hit the "pause" button every now and then to be sure I soak up a little piece of wonderful each day! I challenge you to do the same. Try and take 3-5 minutes each day to just reflect on your day and the little moments and conversations that make life beautiful! It sounds so easy but believe me there are many days I don't get to enjoy much and that's not good!

The month of March has been so fun! We have had lots of visitors, travels and long days at the office :) We just celebrated an early 30th birthday for the old man of the house, haha! My family and his all came into town for the get together which was amazing! We actually began the day with a 5k race on Daniel Island and my Dad ran with us! Watching him sprint to the finish line brought tears to my eyes because I am just so proud of how far he's come since his heart attack in 2009. It was crazy the emotions that I felt on Saturday watching my Dad....but I was mostly filled with happiness that I was able to share such a fun experience with him! I was also so happy to have my incredible mother there, who was basically our own paparazzi! haha! She is loving photography right now and is even in a class to perfect her new talent! She enjoyed taking lots of pictures around the island! It made me really happy to see her so excited and passionate about her new hobby!!

I would love to write more but we just got home from Sushi and are so exhausted from our very busy Monday! We are off to the Bahamas on Thursday to celebrate Stiles first State Farm qualifier trip! I am so proud of him for all of his hard work and very deserving success! We will also be toasting his official 30th birthday which will be so much fun!

I hope everyone is having a great week! Remember, hit that pause button tomorrow i think you will enjoy it more than you think!

Hugs from Alisa, Stiles and Max :)
