The past two weeks over my break were amazing. I relaxed and played in the great city of Charleston with friends and family! I spoiled myself and enjoyed living in the Low-Country.
So what have I been up to in my absence?
1. Eating my way through Charleston. Y'all, Charleston has some of the best food. We literally have eaten out breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I currently have a huge food baby. Worth it? TOTALLY!!!
2. Playing with my sweet mama! We had a toast to my mom retiring after 35 years as a teacher and Jeffrey and I's new adventure on the Island! My mom is such a great woman whom I look up to a lot. I always have a blast talking the day away with her.
3. Shopping!!!! Jeffrey and I went to 2nd Sunday on King and shopped around King, East Bay, and Meeting Street. My steep count rocked new heights after our walking... I mean shopping spree.
4. Visiting the beach. A Charleston Staycation isn't complete without a trip to the gorgeous beaches.
5. Watching a record River Dogs no hitter! We had a blast cheering on the River Dogs even though they played a no hitter and lost miserably (10 to 0). Win or lose, the Nelson's love baseball.
6. Getting scared on ghost tours! We went on a Charleston history ghost tour and learned so much cool information about our great city. If you visit Charleston, I highly recommend doing one of these.
7. Getting lost at Fort Moultrie. We had a blast walking around this fort getting completely lost. I highly recommend visiting Moultrie. The information is so cool and the view is incredible.
8. WALKING EVERYWHERE! My fitbit is off the charts. We walked everywhere and compared our steps all week! Y'all, I hit 25,000 steps in one day! *high-five me!*
9. Sneezing! The pollen count was record high these past two weeks so we were all sneezing. We diffused lavender, peppermint, and lemon constantly. My dad is now a total oil believer!
10. Praised the Lord. I love when my parents visit. I am biased, but my mom and dad are the best parents in the world. We have so much fun together. This morning as I rode over the bridge and watched the sunrise over the water (rough commute I know), I thanked God for a great life and an amazing family to share it with.
As you can see, I have been busy! I will try not to leave you for a whole two-weeks! Thanks for being patient with me. What have you been up to in my absence?
