Engagement Photo Shoot

A little over a week ago, Alex and I went to Boone Hall Plantation for an engagement photo shoot. Our photographer was GREAT! His name is Chris Smith from Chris & Cami Photography here in Charleston. He took BEAUTIFUL pictures! If you are in the Charleston area and need a photographer, I highly recommend him. We did an hour photo shoot from 4:00-5:00 in the evening right before sunset. It was a gorgeous day! I am so excited to finally have really good pictures of Alex and I. You can check out all of our pictures or view the slideshow at http://chrisandcami.com/zenfolio.com/p1017760403. Here are some of my favorites!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! I was able to go to Hartsville to eat Thanksgiving dinner with my family at my Gaga's house. My dad fried a turkey (which is my favorite thing about Thanksgiving dinner besides the sweet potato casserole that my mom makes and my Gaga's lemon pie)! Unfortunately, Alex was on 3rd shift and had to work. We sure did miss him at dinner! I was able to make it back to Mt. Pleasant in time to bring him A LOT of food before he left for work. We will be able to eat for a few days off of the food that I brought back! Thanks Mama and Gaga!

Although the food is great, Thanksgiving is truly a time to reflect on all of the blessings in our lives. Alex and I have a lot to be thankful for. We are truly blessed to be able to live the life that we do. We have great family and friends that love us! We have good jobs, a roof over our heads, and food on the table. Alex and I are most thankful for each other. I can't wait to marry my best friend on the gorgeous island of Jamaica in March!

It's beginning to feel alot like Christmas...

I LOVE this time of the year! Christmas is my favorite holiday. I put up our 1st Christmas tree together about 2 weeks ago. I know that seems early, but I was in the Christmas spirit! I love to sit on the couch at night with Alex with the Christmas tree lights on. Now, we just need some presents under it! I thought I would post some pictures of our very 1st Christmas tree!

GO COCKS!

I had to post that I am sooooooo excited that we beat Florida @ the swamp last night for the first time ever! The final score was 36-14! We are the SEC East champs and going to the SEC Championship game in Atlanta on December 4th to play Auburn! Way to go boys! Thanks Coach Spurrier! I am amazed by Marcus Lattimore & Alshon Jeffery (Stephen Garcia played awesome as well)! They are all great football players! Lattimore broke a school record last night by rushing over 1000 yards this season (and he still has 2 more games to go)! We will be cheering on the Gamecocks on Dec. 4th! GO COCKS! :)
