Bryan and I just got back from the most relaxing vacation we've probably ever been on. We went to one of our favorite cities, Charleston, South Carolina. We love everything about Charleston, from the city to the beaches, the food (and pralines), to the old southern history/architecture. I didn't even know "babymoon" was a thing until everyone started asking me where were going on this babymoon trip. Anyways, it's the same thing as a vacation and we wanted to take one last trip with just us two before the baby came. Luckily I am in my second trimester (which they say is the best time to go) and it's summer, so it was perfect timing. We stayed at the neatest little hotel right on the marsh, Shem Creek Inn. We watching the dolphins chase after the boats and could walk to multiple restaurants from our hotel. We were in love with this place and already talk about the next time we can go back. We were just a five minute drive to our favorite beach, Sullivans Island. Sullivans is nothing but locals and their many dogs running around on the beach, we love this! We always had the beach pretty much to ourselves which made it nice. We traveled to Folly and Isle of Palms a couple days but it was much more public and way too crowded for us this trip. We stuffed our faces with the best food. Charleston is known for their amazing southern dishes, seafood, and old fashioned candy. I hate wayyy to much but it was worth it! Baby Sawyer really enjoyed the virgin pina coladas and pralines- he would kick like crazy after each one. There was one point I was out in the ocean and a wave wiped me out unexpectedly. I stormed out of the ocean like a two year old thinking something might have happened. One virgin pina colada later he was kicking up a storm. We traveled downtown a few nights and wondered around the streets of Charleston. We checked out the famous Angel Oak Tree and visited some old historic sites. Out of the many trips I've made to Charleston this one was by far my favorite. I saw more of Charleston this trip than I've seen out of all the others. We sat on the beach and just talked about life this time next year. It's going to be crazy having a little boy running around but we can't wait. We are so thankful for these sweet and many blessings from God. We are excited to see what the future holds for us!
