We had a great time in Savannah. It was sooooo nice to not think about what I should be studying!
Friday night Justin and I went out to eat at a little restaurant on the river and then walked down River St. We had a lot of fun just taking our time and enjoying the atmosphere.
Friday morning we went and stood in line to get a reservation at Paula Dean's restaurant, Lady & Son's for later that night. (That's the only way to get reservations for parties of less than 10)
Then we had breakfast at Clary's. The building was actually built in 1903 as a pharmacy and later it was converted to a restaurant. It's famous as the author of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil gained the plot from the book while eavesdropping in the restaurant. Later when the movie was filmed in Savannah, all of the stars ate there. I had the BEST french toast and chocolate chip pancakes I've ever had.
Then the guys played 9 holes of golf. I rode along and snapped a few photos and read my book. (I was glued to that book all weeekend. It's the best I've read in a long time. The Secret Life Of CeeCee Wilkes by Diane Chamberlain- AWESOME!)
That afternoon we headed to Tybee Island for a bit. I wasn't a fan of the beach. Flys were biting and it was so crowded. I can't get in a ocean if it's not clear, I just get all paranoid lol, so I just read my book.
We ate at Lady & Son's that night. So good and a great experience. I had shrimp but Justin got the buffet. He was so full when we left. And those are some of the best yams I've ever had!!!!
Oh and Justin got a kick out of this in Paula's store.
The next morning, we all ate at Clary's again and then Justin and I did a trolley tour because Justin had never been to Savannah.
Then we headed home and had supper with daddy for Father's Day!
It was a nice weekend! Hope you had a great one too!

Wowzer
I took the MCAT today. It was hard. It was long. I feel like I accomplished something just by getting through it.
We're going to Savannah this weekend! Wahoo for mini getaway weekends!
I'll try to catch up soon!

Showers 3 and 4 and some in between!
Sorry that my blog is consumed with showers at the moment. With work and MCAT studying, my posting time is so slim that I just try to hit the high points.
On May 16th, Justin's aunts hosted a shower at their church. It was a lot of fun! Here a few photos!

Wonderful hostesses, me, and the mamas
On May 23rd, we did the Save Our Skin Walk/Run in memory of my Papa. We had the best time! Justin and his friend Justin ran and the rest of us walked. And my grandmother won 3rd in her age group! She was so proud! They had dermatologists on site and we all got checked out. Everyone got a thumbs up except me but what else is new. Overall we had a great time and we helped raise money for a great cause! We hope to make it a yearly event!

This past Saturday we had a shower at Mt. Olivet. It was given by a lot of my mom's high school friends and my grandmother's church friends. There was a great turnout, yummy food, and really nice gifts!
Awesome hostess gift! This is a place setting of our everyday china.
Yummy food! They even used my favorite flowers as the centerpiece.
Mama and Tammy :-)

Sorry for the photo overload!!! No showers this weekend, but Justin is in a wedding so I'm sure there will be more photos to come!
