2024 was one for the books!
Highlights included:
🌟 Jake & Tiff’s anniversary trip to Elon
👯♀️ Tiff making memories with Jenny in Richmond (girl time really is the best time!).
🐭 Disney Spring Break adventures with Nana.
🎉 Betty turning 2 and proving terrible twos can actually be adorable.
☀️ A summer full of beach days, pool hangs, and cheering on the best baseball team ever!
🎒 Jamey starting 2nd grade and turned the big 8 (so grown up).
👨👩👧👦 We shared so many laughs, hangouts, and unforgettable family moments.
Here’s to even more magic in 2025! ✨ Cheers to love, laughter, and the best memories. 🥂 #FamilyFirst #2024Wrapped #BringOn2025”
Happy Birthday to our amazing Jamey!
From the moment you came into our lives, you’ve been a force of creativity, kindness, and pure joy. Watching you grow into the best big brother to Betty—so patient, loving, and protective—fills our hearts with pride every day.
You’re the kind of kid who lights up every room, whether it’s with your big ideas, your hilarious sense of humor, or even your sassy comebacks (yes, we secretly love those too!).
This year, we’re celebrating you—our Fortnite-loving, @marshmello -dancing, talkative, smart, and endlessly creative boy. We are so lucky to call you ours.
Keep being your incredible self, Jamey. The world is so much better with you in it. We love you to the moon and back. Happy Birthday!

Our #4thofjuly plans changed today but it was absolutely worth it because we cooked out and enjoyed the best neighborhood fireworks show with amazing neighbors!!!
Jake has always wanted a stripped down jeep to be able to cruise around in and go to the beach. So, for Father’s Day the kids and I gave him a toy jeep and a note saying I rented him one for a date day.
We got a two door red jeep for the day with no top and no doors from Blockade Runners Jeep Rentals for the day and it was PERFECT!!! It came with a pass for the drive on beach!
Honestly it was the best date day we have had in FOREVER!!!
This morning was pure magic capturing the Martin Family’s sunrise session! From Bennett’s newborn cuddles to Bryce’s surprise for Hailee’s birthday/their anniversary, every moment spent with this amazing family is filled with joy! Watching the boys grow has been incredible. Can’t wait to share the memories we created together! 🌅✨ #FamilySunrise #SurpriseSession #MemorableMoments #NCFamilyPhotographer #SneadsFerryPhotography #TopsailBeach #SurfCityNC #FamilyPortraits #CoastalLife #BeachPhotography #SneadsFerryNC #TopsailIsland #FamilyFun #NorthCarolinaPhotographer #SunsetSessions #BeachDays #FamilyMemories #SneadsFerryMagic #SurfCityMemories #TopsailBeachLife #CoastalLiving #FamilyLove #SneadsFerrySunrise #SaltLife #TopsailPhotographer #BeachVibes #FamilyAdventures
I couldn’t end the night without celebrating one of my best friends to say happy birthday!!! Leah is one of the most supportive people I know. She’s kind, smart, funny, incredibly talented, and the best kind of sassy (even when she only gives me side hugs). She runs @topsailtalk and cares deeply for our community. It only fits that we met and became fast friends at a neighborhood food truck where our boys bonded immediately.
I love you forever!!!!
A special shout out to my amazing husband for my Mother’s Day Eve spa day!!! I spent a few hours at @bluewater.wellness and got a 60 minute massage, 30 minute soothing soles, 60 minute facial, and 30 minute head massage!
Brenda did my massage and feet!!! She was AMAZING!!!! For the first time in a long time I finally feel my muscles, hips, and neck relax.
Alyssa did my facial and head massage! I may or may not have fallen asleep during the head massage 🤣 Side note: she’s also amazing at brows and lashes!!!
Happy 2nd Birthday to our spunky girl!!! She’s obsessed with all things Moana, Mickey/Minnie, and basketball! She’s adventurous, stubborn, goofy, and independent. I just hope none of that changes and she continues to grow into a strong woman one day!!! We love you sweet Bee!!!
Phew after having the stomach flu for the past couple of days I finally feel functional again!!!
This time last week I was up in Richmond visiting one of my best friends. Do you have someone that is the ying to your yang? That’s what Jenny is! She quiets my loud, she is the smartest person I know, and she’s the outdoorsy do it yourselfer that I wish I could be. We don’t get to see each other as much as we would like but I’m so happy I got to go up and spend her birthday with her!!!!
We love you Aunt ChiChi!!!! I can’t wait to take you to Disney with us sometime!!!
