Happy Father's Day and a Video!

I am truly blessed with the life that I have and especially grateful for my amazing father. I really don't know where I would be without him in my life, but I'm guessing somewhere being a whole lot crazier than I already am. Happy Father's Day to my sweet daddy and all the other awesome dads out there! I made a short video for him to show my appreciation and decided to share it with you too. 

Closing Day!

I'm Alive

Hello Everyone! Do you remember me? I do realize that I am officially the worst blogger EVER! There must be an award for that somewhere online, I'm confident I would win. But I sincerely promise to update more often from now on. 

There hasn't been much to report up until now other than lots of job and house hunting. Thankfully, I am once again employed. I started working about three weeks ago and I am loving my new job so far! As far as the house hunting goes, I am almost positive that I will be upgrading from my parents pull out sofa very soon....can't wait to share the deets on that. So now that my life is slowly being pieced back together I can focus on other things like this poor neglected blog. I hope everyone is doing fabulous and is having a great week so far! And now I will  leave you with a random picture because a post with no pictures is just sad.

An Evening Photo Stroll

There are two things I love about Charleston so far:

1. It seems as though everyone is looking for an opportunity to drink wine during the week.

2. The city is gorgeous! Not all of it, but mostly everywhere you turn, there stands a beautiful building with a story to tell.

My friend Katlyn took me down to The Battery yesterday evening to show me all the amazingness that lined the streets. I would seriously give my big toe and maybe my right pinky to live in any of those houses.

We spent our time poking around peoples front doors and peeking over fences, illegal perhaps? Maybe. I know people don't like looking at pictures of just random buildings and sites so that's why I uploaded a bunch for you to see! 

Fine, I'll throw one in of me and a canon.

Have you all strolled around your hood with a camera lately? Sometimes it's nice to stop and focus in on what's beautiful.

Weekend Photo Dump

I knew this change in my life would be somewhat difficult. What I didn't realize a couple months ago was  how great and happy I would be at this very moment. If I could have just picked up my remote and fast forwarded through time to where I am now it would have made my decision that much easier. Don't get me wrong, I still feel sad from time to time but know for a fact that I am in a much better place geographically and emotionally. If anyone is going through a similar situation, trust your gut and know that as long as you have people around you that love you unconditionally, well that's really all you need. Alrighty then now that I have dished out some life advice, let's get to the random photos, shall we?

Oh St. Patty's day, I love you for so many reasons. Good friends,

adorable pooches with better wardrobes than me,

Food trucks= my new obsession,

Peanut Butter & Siracha donuts (sounds gross but very amazeballs),

 Banoffee Pie donuts,

Chocolate Stout & Potato Chip donut,

and of course green beer.

I Like You (just the way you are) and Your Kisses Are My Favorite cards from Ink Meets Paper.

This one I bought to frame one day.

A Mexican restaurant, Taco Boy, we ate at after all the festivities.

String lights on the patio.

Jimi!

My first oyster shot! I'll try anything once.

I hope you guys had a fabulous and safe weekend!

Green Cupcakes

Green because they were cheap to make and green because, well they're green. I love holidays, especially ones like St. Patricks's Day that give you an excuse to dye all your food and beverages a different color without people giving you the stink eye. I am so excited that St. Patty's day is on a Saturday this year and that I am in a new place to celebrate it!

I used funfetti mix because it's my favorite and I don't bake from scratch unless I want to have a mental breakdown. 

 A sprinkle of leprechaun dust...

I made about 18 of these yesterday and they're pretty much gone. I guess this is what happens when you share a home with with two teenagers. Sigh. I hope everyone has a wonderfully green weekend and don't get too crazy with all the green beer sloshing around! I know I will!
