i HEART Charleston

I would really LOVE to live here.
Palm trees are everywhere.
The beach is close by.
Fun colorful houses.
Huge wrap around porches.
Summer 2007

Matt and I share a love for this city.
After meeting in Dec 2006, Matt went to study abroad in Paris. When he came back and I came home after the Spring semester ended, we spent our first day date -ever- in Charleston. We went to Folly Beach, walked around downtown, went to the Battery, and had lunch at Hyman's Seafood Restaurant


A few weekends ago, we went down to Charleston. We stayed at Matt's older brother & his wife's home. Everyone was in town for the Cooper River Bridge Run.
About 25,000 - 40,000 people (yes you read that right) run and walk in this race every year.
The race day was beautiful. Sunshine (low 70's) with a strong breeze.

There was a costume contest

Charleston truly is so beautiful with real Southern character.
There is an open market.
Awesome restaurants.
Architecture.
Shopping. and so much more.






We went to church at Redeemer Presbyterian on Sunday morning

Then, had lunch afterwards @ Hyman's Seafood
Maybe someday we will call this home- Lord willing.
For now, I can dream :)
