Girls Getaway Trip!

At the end of Week 20, my BFF, Lauren & I took a girls trip to Charleston & Kiawah Island, South Carolina to attend Beth & Jake's wedding! The red heads unite again, finally! 1st thing at 5:30AM at the airport on Friday, "are you girls sisters?" It took almost 12 hours of travel to get to our hotel room in Charleston to take a "disco nap", as Lauren calls it! Ha ha! We were fortunate enough that we got to go to the rehearsal dinner on Kiawah Island, where we reconnected with Beth's siblings & got to know Jake & his family a little better! We got to sight-see & browse around the island to observe the beautiful ocean-view mansions! It was like HEAVEN on a golf course slash island!


Amazing homes on the island.

Don't you think it looks like a postcard?


A beautiful family of deer crossing the street in the neighbor hood.


This is the closest that we have ever been to a deer. Definitely not scared of people!















Our buddy Lindsey that played tennis with Beth in hs.




Lauren & I did some more investigating on culture of Charleston on Saturday & went down to the attractions at Market St to experience some fine dining at the Original Charleston Crab House. We ordered a seafood sampler & neither of knew how to eat the steamed snow crab legs...I needed some scissors! We bought some souvenirs from the vendors & enjoyed the no humidity weather of SC! Boy, we had a GREAT time! We made it to the wedding back on the island & it was truly a dreamy site! The 3 course meal was a highlight & danced the night away with the rocking band...Lauren even broke out her MJ Beat It moves! I just LOVE me some Lauren...she is the life of the party!! It could not have been a better weekend spent with my best red headed gal!
