Life Lately

TGIF.  Today marks the first day of our week long vacation and I am so excited to relax in the sun.

I guess since Monday was Memorial Day I never shared pictures from our weekend.  We traveled up to the mountains for one of my close friend's wedding and it was just beautiful up there.  I am such a beach person but I do love the mountains every now and then.  We stayed in an awesome cabin in Valley Crucis.



We had such a good time with my old high school friends.



The happy groom and one of my best friends (his dad married Matt and I )

Before we left town Sterling graduated from his 3 year class.  I can't believe next year will be his last year before kindergarten!  Gotta love the fact he chose to wear cowboy boots for his performance!


After his graduation we tried out a new restaurant here called Box Car Betty's that was incredible.  It was the best fried chicken sandwich I have had.  All the chickens are organic and locally farmed, which I really liked.  This sandwich was slathered with pimento cheese, pickles, and peach cole slaw.  It was truly incredible.  They are located on hwy 17 for all my local friends.


We did a family boat ride Monday night, that was just gorgeous.




I started packing for our family vacation. I am so excited for a week to relax and most importantly spend time with my mom and dad and brother and sister and their spouses.
*If you like vodka try the Absolut Texas it is cucumber and Serrano chile. It is refreshing with a bite at the end!
