"Baby It's Cold Outside..."

Well hello February, how did you get here so fast? I can't believe we are already a week into February! 2010 has been off to a great but busy start for me and Timmy. We have both been busy with activities at work, we have been visiting churches again in hopes of finding a church home here in Charleston, and we have enjoyed a few visits from some friends. While fortunately we have not had snow dumped on us for the past few weekends like many of our family in friends in VA, MD, and PA, it has certainly been very cold down here the past few weekends.

When I last posted the girls had just come down to visit over MLK weekend. Last month I also had the chance to go to lunch and catch up with my college friend Pam and her husband Jason while they were visiting Charleston. Pam is pregnant and is due in June so it was great to catch up after so long and to get lots of updates. We look forward to seeing them both again in July at Emily and Jess's wedding. My former co-worker, and fellow Chi Omega Sister, Spring and her boyfriend Jordan also came down to Charleston for a day to visit the law school here. I enjoyed getting to spend the afternoon with the two of them and Timmy and I enjoyed a great dinner with them at Fleet Landing. Some of my mom's girlfriends were spending the week in Hilton Head last week and came up to Charleston for the day so I got to visit with them for a little while. That is one nice thing about living in Charleston, lots of people visit and we are able to see old friends and family more regularly than when we were in Columbia. We love the company and hope to have more visitors as the weather gets nicer.


Last weekend Timmy and I attended the Lowcountry Oyster Festival, and despite the frigid temperatures had a lot of fun. My friends Melantha and Bethany from work came out and met us and they enjoyed the oysters and Timmy and I enjoyed the vendor food. Timmy had to be there for work and I do enjoy that we are able to participate in some fun Charleston activities thanks to his job! This weekend is the Southeastern Wildlife Expo which is another big Charleston event that Timmy will get attend for work. I have a program all weekend so probably will not be able to enjoy this one with him, but I am ok with that!

As you all know Timmy and I love to entertain and so we are preparing to have our friends over to watch the big Super Bowl game tonight. Timmy is making my favorite buffalo chicken dip, pigs in a blanket, and we bought some frozen finger foods at Costco. He also baked this cinnamon bread a little while ago that smells amazing, I cannot wait to try it. I really do think that I am the luckiest girl in the world to have a husband that is such an amazing cook!

The next few weeks are busy for Timmy and I both but hopefully I may actually find time to blog more than once this month! (I have some pictures to add but they are not uploading correctly right now, hopefully I can get them added soon!)
