Baltimore 10 Miler Review
Good morning! I have been MIA because I have been traveling up and down the east coast. My sister, BIL and nephew just moved to a new city and new home. I told my sister as a house warming gift that I would help her paint the living room dubbed as the “red room of pain.” So I decided to make a trip of it and travel up to Maryland for a long weekend (with Scout in tow of course!). As I was thinking about the need to motivate myself to run, I looked up races in the area for the weekend. The Baltimore 10 miler was scheduled for the…

Edisto Beach Summer 2015 Trip #1
Happy Monday! We had a wonderful weekend in Edisto with Drew’s family. Edisto Beach/Island is one of my favorite places on earth. So many special memories have been made in Edisto (i.e. getting engaged over 2 years ago on the beach) and we always have a great time! This was our first spring/summer trip to Edisto and I cannot wait for the many more trips to come (already have a week long vacation planned later this summer along with a couple weekend trips with friends!). This weekend we did a lot of relaxing and enjoyed the start of summer weather at the beach. The water is still a little chilly,…

Surprise Maryland Trip for Dad’s 60th/Mother’s Day
Hello! I am writing from my wonderful kitchen table this morning. And boy, it has been a whirlwind of the past couple of days. My dad turned 60 on Thursday–so we decided to make an impromptu trip to Maryland to celebrate his birthday. Mimi invited us to a cookout in my dad’s honor a few weeks back and since it was a free weekend for us, we decided to go! I told the majority of my family about the surprise trip–and everyone kept quiet until we arrived and dad greeted us at the door. I am so happy that we got to surprise/celebrate with my dad at his party! The…

Cooper River Bridge Run 2015 and Family Time
As my memory on my iPhone keeps telling me that my cloud is filled–I have decided to post some pictures from my girls weekend a couple weeks back. It has been a standing tradition for a few years now to make a girls weekend out of the Cooper River Bridge Run. We started running the race back when we all first moved to Charleston after college. I lived in a house with 4 of my friends off of Wentworth/Pitt Street in downtown Charleston. It was a great transition from college to postgrad life–and really made us all feel like we were just living in a sorority house rather than being…

Easter 2015 in Chapin
Happy Easter Monday! Drew and I enjoyed a long weekend in Chapin. It is awesome how many companies in Upstate South Carolina get off on Good Friday. Growing up in Maryland–we certainly did not, but we did get off for many Jewish holidays so I guess it evens out. On Thursday night, we went to a new restaurant, Bar Louie, off of Woodruff Road (Greenville, SC). I like to go to restaurants on Woodruff Road because there are so many different options and it is a lot closer to us than going downtown (only a 10 minute difference, but always seems easier ha!). Apparently, Bar Louie is a chain restaurant with a…

Amelia Island and Fernandina Beach Recap
I had an awesome long weekend traveling to Fernandina Beach, Florida. My mom has been looking at moving to the Amelia Island area for sometime now and I decided to take a trip with her to scope out her potential new home. My cousin, Kelsey, and two of my mom’s girlfriends joined along. It was a fun group of ladies and we all really enjoyed our stay on the island. Fernandina Beach is such a cool town. It has small town charm, amazing restaurants, beautiful views, lots of sidewalks (a runner’s dream), extremely friendly people and is really a hidden gem on the Florida Georgia line. I seriously cannot believe that such…
