on monday being part of the weekend

Yes, it is Monday and yes, it is still my weekend. No, this is not an April Fool's Joke. I happened to get that lucky when it came to spring time holidays. 

So even though my weekend really isn't over until tonight, I'll still join the bandwagon and link up to update y'all on my weekend shenanigans, minus the party times that I just may get into today. I know, I know, so nice and not rub-by in of me.


This weekend started off with a drive to Charleston. It's the kind of drive that feels liberating and exciting because you know your destination is b-e-a-utiful. (a.k.a.--Freds is there, dawww). It's the drive back to Atlanta that is less than fun. But worry not, let's focus on these purdy phone pictures instead.

one- My sister gave us her hand-me-down camera which is still a wonderfully nice camera. Freddie went and took sunset/beachy/pretty pictures a few weeks ago and hello, stealing and sharing this one.
two- As soon as I had parked my car in Freddie's driveway we were off walking down to the Pitt St. bridge which has an uh-mazing few of Charleston in the distance. Come to C-ston and go. This is a view of the Cooper River bridge on our walk.
three- walky, walky, walking
four- Accidental matchsies outfits, minus Freddie having no floral print on his pants. Fashion. Less. 
five- Pitt St. bridge. I know, you're probably as jealous as I am that Freddie lives within walking distance of this thang. 
six- Easter dinner. Two noteworthy aspects of this picture: 1- drinking wine from a South Carolina cup. Classy and fabulous. 2- Truffle Mushroom Risotto. I think we just started 2 new Easter traditions.
seven- Emily, Freddie, a blanket, and the wind. Cue Colors of the Wind background music. 
eight- More scenery/make you jealous pictures. 
nine- We came to watch the Easter sunset but the Easter bunny clouds had another idea. Joke's on you, clouds, because it was still pretty.

Happy Monday! 
Sorry I had no wonderfully schemed April Fool's Day Joke.
Leave all of your ideas below.

Yay for starting new traditions! Also requesting more ocean pictures so we can all live vicariously through Freddie's new digs. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Just found you through the link up and I'm following you now. :)

You're so lucky to have today off! I'd much rather have today (Monday) off than Friday. This week is going to go by so slow for me now.

Beautiful pictures! Can't wait to see more - and see what you got up to today!
