Welcome!

In an effort to stay in touch with friends and family all over the world, Matt and I have created a blogspot....well, who are we kidding...I've created it and added little tid bits about Matt in it ;) At any rate, I hope you enjoy our pictures, slideshows, rants, raves and everyday happenings of our rather newly married life.

Cheers!

"Most Awesomeness in One Place"




This is a quote that Evan said while driving through the streets of Charleston and I have to say, Matt and I are somewhat obliged to agree.....we had an amazing weekend there with my sister, Hayley and her boyfriend, Evan. Hayley cooked a delicious spagetti dinner for us the first night and we got a chance to meet Evan's sister and husband (who Hayley says we have a lot in common with), so that was nice. Dinner was great and after polishing off a bottle of Reisling, we decided to venture out to the bars in downtown Charleston. We had an oyster shot at Pearlz, one too many Sweet Tea Vodkas at Social and finished the night with a few beers at this whole in the wall bar, Griffins. Needless to say, we were struggling on Saturday. Still, we rallied and after a Chick-Fil-A chicken biscuit and coke we were on our way to Sullivan's for some beach time. We spent the day drinking and sunbathing and then one of Evan's friends, Collin, picked us up by boat and we headed to Morris Island for .... you guessed it, more drinking! Are we noticing a theme here? We stayed out on the boat until almost 8pm and by the time we got back to Hayley's on James Island, Evan didn't know his name, Hayley was burnt and I was just exhausted. I don't know how these crazy kids do it these days! We stayed in that night and ordered pizza and watched the Olympics.....and Evan.....he was entertainment alone! "Don't chlorox the carpet" .... "I bought it, I'm going to drink it!" :) Our last day in Charleston we had an awesome brunch at Mimis on the marsh and listened to music outside and then headed into town to putz around the Battery and marketplace. After a little shopping on King Street it was time for Matt and I to hit the road. We had a FANTASTIC time though and hope to go back more often. It had been a year since we'd last been there and we can't let that happen again! Love you Hayls!
