After a long afternoon at the pool and a few too many snow cones, we celebrated the 4th of July with our 4th Annual Low Country Boil and Fireworks fete! With rain looming in the forecast all week, I didn’t put a lick of effort into this party. Just good food, cold beverages, all sorts of yard games and loads of the best friends and family a gal could ask for! Oh, and probably a little too much Madonna on the play list. Happy birthday, America! xoxo

The highlights of his week were crabbing off the dock and holding Checkers… Read More
I Know I Can
The PCP is nothing if not confident in himself, his abilities, his knowledge, his muscles, his mastery of any and all feats…you get my drift. I’ve said before that his self confidence is one of his most admirable characteristics, and one that fuels dogged determination to accomplish anything, do anything, learn anything…etc. Another admirable, albeit… Read More
Shopping Savannah
I mentioned our rainy weather earlier this week, and can I just say that the beach would have made for much cheaper days. We ventured out in the monsoon to shop a few chains and a few locals. We went stark raving mad buying up all sorts of coastal gems at Home Goods. Corals and… Read More
