So glad we took this trip! We flew directly to Bos So glad we took this trip! We flew directly to Boston and  spent a night - we had to make sure to see our friend Audrey @bostonfoodietours and I also had a date with my favorite pasta dish from @scampoboston 😂. Oh and of course our happy place @beaconhillbooksandcafe! 📚 

Then we drove into southern Maine for a couple days and did all the things - picked apples, saw lighthouses, threw rocks in a stream, explored Portland and Kennebunkport, and checked out the humongous @llbean campus.

Such a fun and relatively easy long weekend getaway! Totally different world from home. Can’t wait to go back so we can get up to Acadia and Bar Harbor and all that fun stuff.

After 15 years of invitation meetings, we’ve kin After 15 years of invitation meetings, we’ve kind of heard it all 🙂 We thought it might be fun to share some of the common things that come up when we’re talking about stationery.

What do you think about this kind of content? Should we do more? We’re always trying to keep up with these algorithms but it’s hard to do 😂

Charleston will always be home, but a piece of my Charleston will always be home, but a piece of my heart will always be in Athens! If you ever have the chance to visit, you’ll see why ❤️

Got to stop by old favorite @brettscasualathens where we ate practically every weekend. Checked out @treehousekidandcraft and got a craft class in. 

Hit the dining hall which the kids LOVE and I would like to suggest we someone open some sort of family dining hall membership scenario for those of us who never know what to cook and the kids don’t eat it anyway.

It was extra special to get to peek inside the interior design studio where I spent 3 years learning and drawing and growing. Ella got to come in with me and meet one of my professors!

And of course, cruising around town on the trike rocking his “football player jersey” was all the little guy needed 🙂

It was a fun weekend!
