I sooooooo want to be a fan of baseball and I sooooo want to be enjoying the last game of the World Series; especially since I have a friend that plays for the Cardinals (Go Skip!!!!) But oh my gosh this game moves SO slow. It is brutal.

Topsail Island
This last weekend was for relaxing. Well, relaxing, drinking margaritas, and enjoying the perfect Fall weather while laying out at Topsail Island.
On Friday Mo and I packed up the puggle and headed out to the beach with our friends Allison and Mark. Topsail is really interesting to me because on one side (where Allison’s house sits) is the inter-coastal water way, so you can lay out on the...
Off to Topsail Island!!!
Going to the beach for the weekend and I have completely forgotten what one wears/packs to go to the beach.

All dressed up and...

Clair and Dave's Wedding Weekend
I don’t even know where to begin as I am still in a haze from all the laughter, all the dancing, all the cocktails, and all the love.
This past weekend Mo and I made the hour drive down to Pinehurst for Clair and Dave’s Wedding. I met Clair when Mo and I had been living in Raleigh for only three months and we became good friends immediately. She is one of those people I just adore...
