gooey brownies, a taste of spring, & wedding bands

Yes, I know the list in the title are three completely random things, but they are wonderful little highlights from this weekend & valentine's day.

This weekend was absolutely wonderful and much needed. I drove up to Rock Hill, SC to visit one of my dearest friends and maid-of-honor: the one and only Christine Ramsey. We began with a good workout, a yummy meal, and ooey-gooey brownies, thanks to the lovely Megan Britt who graced us with her presence Friday night! It was the perfect girls night, complete with good food, good laughter, and good conversation!

The rest of the weekend was just great--especially because Christine and I took on the weekend crowds at Ikea (in Charlotte, just 40 minutes away from Rock Hill) and browsed around. It's funny that I actually enjoy shopping for furniture now, rather than yawning and being ready to leave after 10 minutes.

We explored uptown Charlotte (while getting lost in dangerous areas of town...of course). Charlotte is a neat city--if you haven't been--I highly recommend it! We also ate at the Cowfish, my favorite restaurant in Charlotte.

On Sunday, we went to Forest Hill Church which was AMAZING, dined at a hole-in-the-wall Mexican place (which was very authentic...I can't wait to be in sunny Mexico in May!), enjoyed a long outing at the park due to the GORGEOUS spring weather, and shared some great laughs while watching the grammys. It was a great weekend. Full of laughter and fun.

Thank you Christine, for a FUN FILLED weekend. I don't think I've ever laughed and smiled as much as I did. I cherish you and our dear friendship since 3rd grade!

I was so excited to return to Georgia to my sweet fiance on Valentine's Day! We trekked it to downtown Atlanta and picked out our wedding bands! As we tried them on, I realized how much closer our big day is! It makes it feel even more real! It was the perfect activity for vday.

We then ventured to Fire of Brazil and enjoyed DELICIOUS food. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Thank you Dave for the perfect vday!
