Weekend Sunshine

Tanner loves it when we're home on the weekends cause he gets to spend most of it outside of his room. This is usually how he spends his time while I do chores and Nick studies...




What a lucky little dog, it's a "ruff" life!

Charleston getaway

The first weekend in Feb. we were able to make a short trip to Charleston for a friend's wedding. I've been wanting to go since we got married so it was a good excuse to head on down! On Friday we took a carriage ride through most of the town and walked around the market area. Dinner at Hyman's was delicious. We rode over to Mt. Pleasant on Sat. to the Boone Plantation but decided to take a boat tour over to Ft. Sumter instead. It was so nice to be out on the water and we enjoyed exploring the fort. Afterwards we had lunch with Matt and Nina and then went to the wedding. Fun weekend overall!

Here are some picture from the carriage ride and the tour to Ft. Sumter:

for baby girl...

As all of you are aware, I'm getting really good experience throwing baby showers for ALL of my friends who are expecting. The most recent shower was for a co-worker who is actually at the hospital today welcoming her first baby girl! So in honor of them here's some of the things I made to decorate for the shower and for her to put in the nursery...
