South Carolina

Josh and I arrived in South Carolina on Wednesday last week. Let's just say, we are loving it! Right now I am sitting on his couch in the family room in front of a big fire while his mom Laurie is cooking grits for us! I love South Carolina.

Here's a little break down of the trip so far! I'm not gonna put up any pictures yet but I will when I get a chance. Well, maybe I'll do a few...we'll see how I feel when I finish this. :)

We were very blessed to make it all the way across the country safe and sound without any delays. Most people traveling right now are spending nights in airports and dealing with a number of delays and cancellations. A plane crashed on takeoff yesterday too. Anyhow, we made it safe! Phew. It was a long day but we got into Raleigh and rented our car. We had to upgrade to a Toyota Highlander (large SUV) because we had 6 large suitcases. (We traveled with Josh's sister Kendal as well, it wasn't just us!) We stopped at a Waffle House or WaHo like Josh likes to call it on the way to Columbia and rolled in around 9pm. We hung out with family that night and then Thursday we spent at the church helping set up for Josh's brother Morgan's reception. On Friday Morgan got married in the Columbia Temple. It was a great day. Josh and I were blessed to be able to attend the sealing and be part of that great moment and then we headed outside to take pictures. Morgan asked me to take pictures that day as a little side photographer and just take some fun candid pictures. I was really excited for this opportunity because I've never had the chance to shoot a wedding. I realized how difficult it is and how much time ti takes. By the time for the reception I was ready to just sit and not take anymore. :\ But I really enjoyed doing it! I think I got quite a few good shots. I will do some editing and put some on my photoblog, so look for that update coming soon. The wedding and reception were beautiful. It was a great night. After the reception we helped with the clean up and hit the sack as soon as we got home because we were exhausted.

Saturday morning was non-existent. We slept in until 2pm. :) We obviously needed it. Or...something. But yes. Josh and I went to a party at Murray Lake at one of his friends lake house. It was an awesome place. Josh took me to the ghetto and showed me his old house. It wasn't THAT ghetto..:)

Today has been a good day of relaxing. I took a good 2 and a half hour nap and we watched ELF. I met a lot of people at church this morning. I'm loving this place! Anyways, it's dinner time and we're having eggs, bacon, toast and grits. :) More updates to come soon!

Here's just a cute picture from Morgan's wedding!
