http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2013/05/bailey-beach-week-2013.html
Thursday, May 23, 2013. Bailey Beach Week 2013. We spent the first week of May in Nags Head with my family for our bi-annual Bailey Family Beach Week. It was the first time since 2007. That we were able to have the WHOLE family there. It was awesome. Lindsey took some great pictures so I was waiting to get some pictures from her before I blogged about it, but I decided to just post this amazing slide show she put together instead. Enjoy! It is true.Its always better when were together! The life of Riley.

It's Always Better When We're Together: "How are you doing?"
http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2015/07/how-are-you-doing.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2015. How are you doing? How are you doing? It's a simple question we ask each other everyday. It is almost always asked in passing and answered with a simple, "Good" or "Great, thanks! It's an effortless pleasantry that is easy to answer. until it isn't. What if you're not doing "great" or even "good"? So I just say, "okay." And I really am. I am okay. Or, at least, I know I will be. Then she stayed with me until after 11pm and let me talk and cry and laugh with her until I was ready...

It's Always Better When We're Together: Ryan's 7th Birthday!: Bailey Beach Week Edition
http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2015/06/ryans-7th-birthday-bailey-beach-week.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2015. Bailey Beach Week Edition. This beach week was especially fun because the Friday we were there was Ryan's 7th birthday! Ryan had been looking forward to his "Beach Birthday" from the moment he found out about it. The last time we were at the beach. Ryan played a lot of Zelda on the Wii with my brother, Chris. So this year when I found this cute little Link figurine at WalMart I just knew I had to do a Zelda themed cake. We came home from golf and everyone ate lunch. We were pl...

It's Always Better When We're Together: Basically How I've Been Handling Life Lately
http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2015/08/basically-how-ive-been-handling-life.html
Sunday, August 9, 2015. Basically How I've Been Handling Life Lately. I came across this cartoon this morning and laughed out loud. This has been me for the last month. Between my miscarriage, my little sister moving away from me and the new school year just around the corner this pretty well covers it. I guess I can finally laugh about it now- so maybe it really is fine. :). Love this. And amen. :). August 9, 2015 at 4:28 PM. Excuse me while my laughing-out-loud turns into ugly sobs. The life of Riley.

It's Always Better When We're Together: Bailey Beach Week 2015: The Trek Home
http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2015/07/bailey-beach-week-2015-trek-home.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Bailey Beach Week 2015: The Trek Home. Fast forward to 5:17am. Brady woke up to use the bathroom and startled Zach awake. It sure didn't feel like we had been sleeping very long but luckily Zach looked at the time on his phone and shot out of bed. The alarm hadn't gone off! Our flight was set to leave in an hour! And we still had to return our car to the rental place! He was never coming back! Once again we gathered all our things and with three tired little boys in tow worked our...

It's Always Better When We're Together: Summertime
http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2015/08/summertime.html
Saturday, August 8, 2015. Once we were home from the beach we jumped right into sumer activities. We went the park, to splash pads and even went up to Ogden and to Midway for a few fun afternoon with cousins. We kicked off summer with our first (and incidentally, only) outdoor movie at Adobe. The movie was Big Hero 6- one of our favorites. The boys brought their sleeping bags and put them to good use! Both Brady and Camden took poolside naps- allowing us to spend 5(! Hours at the pool! There were some bi...

It's Always Better When We're Together: Bailey Beach Week 2015 Part 4
http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2015/07/bailey-beach-week-2015-part-4.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Bailey Beach Week 2015 Part 4. I bet you thought I was done with the Beach Week posts didn't you? Saturday was our last day at the beach house. We had to leave that evening to drive to a hotel in Raleigh so we could catch our 6:25am flight on Sunday morning. Poor little Brady's fever came back while we were walking on the dunes so I spent most of the time huddled in the only little sliver of shade in sight. Camden ended up joining us toward the end. Those goggles. I think uncle Ri...

It's Always Better When We're Together: Bailey Beach Week Part 1
http://bellowslife.blogspot.com/2015/06/bailey-beach-week-part-1.html
Sunday, June 14, 2015. Bailey Beach Week Part 1. Uh Keep in mind Camden and I had been settled in and sitting on the plane for some time by now. I kind of couldn't believe what I was hearing. Was she serious? After thinking about it for .0009 seconds I said, "No. You can't. I need him in the window seat to keep him corralled." She said something sarcastic like, "Aww. I was hoping to see mountains today! This is what you've been training for all these months! A total TV champion. Was Ms. Awkward! Granted,...
