A Girls' Staycation!







I was so lucky to have my two closest girlfriends take time out of their busy lives to come visit me here in Greenville! The minute I got the phone call from them saying their flight was booked I was totally giddy...I think I needed a paper chain to count down the days like the ones I make for my kids when something exciting is on the horizon :) We had an amazing weekend with weather we could not have ordered better. We enjoyed a lot of walking and exploring downtown, ate every meal we did not eat at home outside in the perfect weather, shopping (of course), and relaxing over great conversation (and LOTS of laughs!!). They even threw me a baby shower complete with sweet baby girl outfits, practical pieces, and a beautiful bracelet just for me to enjoy. Talk about feeling blessed! As Kelly, Mendy and I laughed and talked we realized we have all been friends for well over 20 years. We also realized how incredibly lucky we are to be able to say that and that we are always be able to pick up from where we left off. It is a gift that we all treasure and are thankful for as we have been there for one another through fun times and some of the most difficult moments we will ever face. Thanks girls from the bottom of my heart for giving me such a memorable staycation before baby arrives, and for your friendship.
