South Carolina State Fair

After the wedding last weekend, Brad and I decided to spend Sunday in Columbia at the fair! I've attended almost every year since I was a little girl. I have wonderful memories of Momma and Daddy taking us girls after Carolina games. We had free reign to ride and eat whatever our little hearts desired. This was only Brad's second visit. It's always fun to watch him look around in amazement.

We rolled in about 1:00pm and went straight to the food, settling on Brad's fav- corn dogs. And then ice cream -with sprinkles. I refrained from devouring my favorite- heavily powdered sugared elephant ears. Probably because Brad's look of disgust at the mention of fried dough. We also refrained from the fried snickers/oreos/butter. I just can't imagine...

We stopped in to take a look at the State House sandcastle.

And ribbon winning roses. We also watch a piglet race and strolled through the farm animal shed.

And then decided to ride just one ride- the ferris wheel. This is the view of Williams-Brice in all its glory.

Another fun filled trip to the fair. Especially with this clown! If only I convert his orange blood....

Lately

This weekend Ammie and I traveled back to Columbia. 4th time in 4 weeks...that's got to be a record. Ammie met Brittany and I met Brad and we headed to Carolina Ale House to watch the Miss State- Carolina game.

We met up with our buddy, Charlie, who was able to shelve the law school books for a couple of hours to watch the game. Brad is in his orange, of course.
Later that evening Brad and I atteded Telissa and Jay's wedding at the Botanical Gardens.

A beautiful ceremony and party with old friends. I hate I didn't get more pictures!

It doesn't get much better than that!

Why do I Love Charleston?

...because on Friday nights you can sit on the patio of the oldest structure in Charleston sipping wine with your girlfriends and enjoying the finest art the city has to offer.
