Winter Fun in Michigan

Lexi got a new warm coat for Christmas.
Ice skating on Scenic Lake at Kate's house. Even Lola joined us on the ice!

Thanksgiving in Atlanta

This year for Thanksgiving T.J., the dogs, and I traveled to Atlanta to TJ's Aunt Cathy's house. We had a great time and were able to see most of TJ's family! On Black Friday I was lucky enough to be able to go to the largest Joann's store I had ever seen! It was a dream come true. This picture was taken in Cathy's backyard. It was so beautiful there with all the leaves changing and nice weather.

Mom & Dad's Fall Visit

Mom and Dad came for a visit over Halloween weekend. I took them out to Isle of Palms where we met this friendly (possibly deranged) pelican! I think all he wanted was some Subway! We also got to ride bikes downtown, which was so much fun. Mom & Dad kissed where the Cooper and the Ashley rivers meet (for good luck!) and Mom & I at the beach. --- This weekend we are off to San Francisco for my National Communication Association Conference! We will post pictures of that adventure soon!

September... I'm 22!

This year for my birthday we did the usual dinner at Olive Garden (which was fantastic) and shopping! We went to Columbia last weekend to go to Joann's and Hobby Lobby. We also went to Hairspray this week (photo above) at the Historic Dock Street Theater (first theater in America circa 1700's) and last night I went to Grease at our movie theater! The festivities continue this weekend!

The Honeymoon!

For the honeymoon we went to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. It was gorgeous, the view on the beach was straight off a post card!

The Wedding!

My Family!

Flower Girls!

The Halls!

It has been a long time since I've last posted... and it has been a CRAZY summer. I was in Michigan for a few months, and TJ was back and forth for work. We had lots of showers, got married, went on our honeymoon, and are now back in Charleston for my last year of Graduate School! Here are some pictures from the wedding.

Spring Events

Here are pictures of the girls and I at Pet Fest in Mt. Pleasant, and TJ and I at my end of the year Grad School party in April! I have only one final left to complete, then done for the summer! 2.5 months until the wedding, I am going to be busy!!

On Easter we went to the really beautiful Charles Towne Landing... where Charleston was first settled!

TJ and I met the whole fam damnily in Orlando a few weekends ago. It was so much fun! I wish we could have stayed the whole week!

TJ's Woodworking

TJ made me some beautiful things this fall and winter! The bookcase is his newest creation.

New Addition: Lexi

I found this dog online and said "This HAS to be Lola's twin!" So we went and looked at her, and sure enough, they are almost identical! Lexi is a little bit smaller though, and very thin. We are so happy to welcome her to our family!
