Adventure Awaits


 Sunshine. Beach. Drinks. Palm Trees. Husband. Wife. 
Let the honeymoon and relaxing begin.


Ok...so it may be cloudy and quite chilly but that isn't going to stop us from walking the beach and making the most of our time in South Carolina.  

The drinks are cold {except the coffee. Coffee is hot and comforting}, palm trees line the streets, shops are open, people are out and about, and adventure awaits.

Here is a look at our first two days in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina!

First find.  Cherry Grove Beach!

Barefoot Landing.
Shops, food, and shows on the pier!

This is also where we got sucked in and lost 3 hours of vacation and our lives.
More on that later...

We walked 5,000 miles to the pier {It truly took an hour, but 5,000 may be a little off}

Watching the sunset from the pier.  {Priceless}

Simple beauty

Making the long walk back.  Pictures just don't do the view justice.

Note to self: sunglasses at night on the beach make you feel drunk.  



                 

We may have jackets on and no desire {or reason} to layout but we are having fun, plus we like adventure and not just laying around! 

We would not complain though if there was more sunshine, less wind and higher temps but until then we are making the most of today.   

Next up... pirates vs knights.

Honeymoon Pit Stop

#madewithstudio

Spring Break is Here!

Indiana, Ohio, then onto Kentucky, Tennessee and finally North Carolina, Andrew and I take our first {long} road trip to celebrate our honeymoon adventure style.

 We tried something new.  We booked a room using Airbnb, and ended up with this cute place and wonderful hostess.  Couldn't be more happy with the personal touch and price for just one night.  For your next destination, you should give Airbnb a try!




We dropped our stuff off and headed to downtown by foot to see what Asheville had to offer.  Very cute, artsy, coffee shop, and live music filled town.

Andrew and I had lots of fun exploring. First stop...





Yes, that is a coffee shop on a Double Decker bus that came over from London in the 70's where it first served as a party bus in Atlanta, GA. How fun?! Not to mention Andrew felt like he was back home for a moment.


Every corner we turned there was so much to soak up, and then off in the distance we noticed the beautiful mountains.  Unique shops and mountains.  Does it get better?


Asheville has character and lots of love.  I am in love.

No idea what these were for, but I love the size and those handles.


I love to do touristy things, so of course I had to find the HUGE iron and take pictures 



Dinner time!




Cheers to us, a great Spring Break and Honeymoon!


Next stop...Myrtle Beach!

PS -- I taught Andrew about {Pringle} duck lips during our lunch stop.
How did he not know about this?



Until next time...  Keep sprinkling your love and joy everywhere you go!

Six Months



A milestone in a lifetime journey.
Our journey began {almost} 3 1/2 year ago.
A new chapter was started 6 months ago.



Wales to America, Andrew made the biggest move of his life.
I am blessed that he chose me to spend his life with.


Everyday is a new challenge.
Some days are better than others,
but everyday we are learning and growing.

Marriage is hard work.
Marriage is rewarding.
Marriage is team work.

Most of all...
Marriage is having your best friend with you always!


Through the tears, arguments and silly fights good times will prevail.  
Here is to many more months {and years} of you and me.  Forever and always.

xoxo
