  • Monday 5: Perspective & other things I’m excited about this week

    Happy Monday everyone! I hope your week is off to a great start. This weekend was really a good one. Friday evening I had the privilege of hearing Immaculée Ilibagiza speak and it was truly inspiring (more on that later). Saturday morning my brother and I hit up the local upscale thrift shop and a little later…

  • Monday 5: New Year’s Edition

    Happy 2018! Can you believe it?? 2017 flew by, especially the last few months. I hope you had a wonderful holiday season with friends and family! My siblings and I spent a quiet Christmas with our dad in North Carolina. For New Years we were back in Charleston and my mom suggested going to a…

  • Monday 5: Sailing & other things I’m excited about this week

    This weekend was definitely one for the books. My stepdad turned 50 and we had quite the celebration. We decked out the backyard with tent, tables, chairs, heaters and an enormous bonfire. It was a lot of work (my brother did not stop all weekend) but it was a lot of fun. It was good…

The next morning my brother…

  • Monday 5: Needlepoint hats & other things to be excited about this week

    Happy Monday! I hope the time change didn’t throw you off too much (why can’t we just pick one time and stick to it?), although I’m not complaining that the days are now an hour longer! This weekend my family and I went to Atlanta to visit some relatives who live in the area. I…

  • Labor Day weekend in Charleston

    Aren’t long weekends the best? It’s only been two weeks since school started back up but my goodness it was good to have a little break. Earlier this summer, my mom let me know that she was hosting an end-of-summer dinner party this weekend and that attendance was not optional. Of course I did not need…
