The Bridal Show

Sunday afternoon was filled with going to The Bridal Show in the Vista. It was a great show, but it was overwhelming! Vendors gave out their business information and special promos, but the best vendors were the travel agents.  They gave out books of honeymoon vacations which were so helpful. But the best vendors, were the CATERERS!


We sampled food.

And more food.

Broad Street Market Registry!

Our adorable registry sign is on display at Broad Street Market! 


I am absolutely in love with this kitchen store. They have everything you can imagine & it's all fabulous! We have only registered for our china since they are going to market this week, but we will be back to complete our registry soon.  


For our china, we have chosen Vietri! I'm obsessed!! It is handcrafted in Italy and I love that I can mix and match each piece.

Vacation

Last week, my family & I headed to the Saluda River for long weekend in the mountains. My Aunt Linnie, my cousin Heather, and her gorgeous daughter Carter joined us. Heather's in-laws have a house in the mountains where we stayed right on the river.

We sat on the back deck and watched tubers ride down the river. 

One tuber got stuck in the rocks. She was scared to get out of her tube, even though she was in 3 inches of water, and get back in the current. Needless to say, she flipped her tube and fell flat on her face. We also saw a sweet grandmother get smacked in the face by every hanging tree limb over the river. HILARIOUS! 

Carter Reese stole our hearts this vacation! She is just a hoot & one of the most well behaved & smartest children I know.

She stole Daddy's heart the most this weekend. She had him wrapped around her little finger. 

Mom came in a close 2nd! ;)

We had so much fun with our families! It reminded me of my childhood summers at the beach where we played cards, grilled out, and relaxed. 


We had a fabulous time! The only person missing was Thomas because he had to work, but we will definitely be back!

Brain Dump!

This post is extremely overdue! We have been extremely busy this summer with birthdays, holidays, and weddings.  A few weeks ago, Thomas & I headed to Anderson, South Carolina to celebrate Turner & Courtney's wedding. Courtney asked me to be her "Stand-In Bride" and could not be more excited! 


Thomas was a groomsman in the wedding and we loved every minute with our friends we haven't seen since graduation.  We are so happy to celebrate Turner & Courtney's BIG DAY!

Last week, we celebrated the 4th of July in pajamas. Every year we have gone to the lake for the day, as well as the rest of our hometown, but Thomas came down sick and we ended up spending the day in rest & relaxation. 

This past weekend, we celebrated Gray & Jennifer's wedding in Camden.  Thomas was a groomsman and we had a fabulous time seeing the friends we saw the weekend before and others we hadn't seen all summer.

It has been an eventful beginning of summer & we are looking forward to much more in the coming months! I promise I will blog weekly from now on!
