Monday 5: Advent edition
Happy Monday! This weekend could not come soon enough, last week lasted too long! Friday evening we went out with Nicholas’ resident friends to Edmond Oast Brewery, a cool spot to hang out and enjoy good beer (and bring your dog). Saturday morning we went to Adoration (a type of Catholic prayer) and went for…

Monday 5: 8 months & other things I’m excited about this week
What a lovely, lovely weekend. My dear friend Olivia (shout out!) got married this weekend to another friend of ours, Jackson. It was such a beautiful service and reception. They had a small, intimate wedding with so much heart! What made it even better was that Nicholas was able to get off work and come…

Monday 5: Hygge & other things I’m excited about this week
Weekends are just the best. Especially ones when you’re not sick and can do things! Friday night I went out with a couple of girlfriends to a spot called Gene’s Haufbrau (oldest bar in Charleston!) and then to a wine and cheese restaurant in West Ashley. We enjoyed some much needed girl time. Saturday after…

What I wish I had known about my parents’ divorce
I think my generation has become very guarded and as I’ve gotten older I’m starting to understand why. From 1960 to 1980, after the no-fault divorce bill was passed (saying that you could get a divorce without proving spousal wrongdoing), the divorce rate more than doubled. A lot of us millennials and some from those in…

Monday 5: Masculinity & other things I’m excited about this week
This weekend was definitely an adventurous one. I went camping for the first time since high school with four men in the mountains of Brevard, North Carolina. To be fair, the camp site was pretty nice; we had grills, showers, wifi…the guys called it ‘glamping,’ but I slept outside so I didn’t see anything glamorous…
