Home... say it with me now... HOME!!!!

Our schedule looked a little like this:

Friday: Leave for CLT at 7:25am. Arrive approximately 14 hrs later at 3:40pm EST. As soon as we arrive, Billy heads out for a wedding rehearsal and dinner. I take off for the nail salon with Maggie and SARAH ANN NOLAND! After getting my nails done, I met Magda for dinner at The Wine Loft, went to TJ Maxx and Walmart, and got to see her fabulous place and sleep in her most comfortable bed!

Saturday: Hair, makeup, wedding, wedding reception, wedding after party (aka BREAKFAST CLUB!)... my friends, Magda, Diana, Sarah Ashley, Nahir, Celita, Joe, Malcolm, and Chang all came to dance the night away with us! Not to mention my Boo, Tiffany Lemmons, came in for the wedding!






Sunday: Football at Fox & Hound where Nahir and Celita met us for food and beer

Monday: Dentist, doctor, ... ohh wait, actually these appointments were on Tuesday, but we showed up for them on Monday. Geez. We decided to go to TJ Maxx, Target, Radioshack, Game Stop, Taco Bell (twice), and Panera Bread instead.  We spent the evening with Billy's family, and then went out for Monday night football... the drinks went down way too easy this night!



Tuesday: Errands and travel to Raleigh.

Wednesday: Hiking with mom, Burger King night with Butch.


Thursday: Shopping, hiking, chili night! My friends Sarah Keagy and Marc Bachman joined us!



Friday: More hiking and shopping... dinner out at a Mexican Restaurant... and a WILD night out with Marc.

Saturday: Wake up way too early, with way too much of a hangover, and drive to Charleston, SC for another wedding. While we felt terrible on the way down, we thoroughly enjoyed the wedding... so beautiful and two amazing people!

Sunday: Up early to drive to Winston-Salem. Unfortunately my Nana died the day we flew in, but I felt fortunate that I could attend the funeral. I also got to see so many of my cousins that I absolutely adore. The funeral was sad, moving, and genuine. After the funeral we drove to Raleigh and spent one last night with my mom.

Monday: Drove to Lynchburg and practiced my Voyager presentation.

Tuesday: Work in Lynchburg, Voyager presentations, and a long night out with my fellow Voyagers... Operation Megatron!



Wednesday: Drive to Washington, DC, dinner at the amazing Founding Farmers, PERFORMANCE OF LES MISERABLES!; and drive to Lexington Park, MD.  I saw the best Jean Valjean (J. Mark Mcvey) I have ever seen in this performance!!!

Thursday: We spent the night with Tiffany and the day scoping out the Chesapeake Bay area. We saw two bald eagles!!! We went out with Tiffany and her neighbors that night where I threatened to put on my new Jordans.

Friday: We had brunch with Tiffany and then took the 8 hour drive back to Charlotte.

Saturday: One last Wal-mart trip... and Billy got his one last Arbys fix while I took in a double dose of Panera Bread.

Goodbye for now Charlotte... we love you!!!!!!!

  1. So Fun!!! Glad you both had a great time while you were home. It amazes me how exciting it is to get US fast food after you have been away for a while.
