Lately ...

This blog post doesn't have a specific purpose, other than to share with all of you what has been going on in our lives recently! 


The weather down here has been absolutely gorgeous recently! The fall weather has been welcomed with open arms, especially since the humidity is gone! Needless to say it has been hard being stuck in an office all day wishing you could be outside. On Friday after work, Johnathan called me and asked if I wanted to meet him at the marina to take the boat for a spin ... twist my arm ... I of course jumped at the opportunity! We grabbed our fishing polls, threw on our bathing suits and headed towards the water. Here is a picture of me catching my first fish! 

After fishing for a few hours, we headed home to get ready for our weekend guests! My cousins Matt, Mayer, and her husband Beau came to visit us! Friday night we took them to Fancy Q for dinner then headed to Ziggy's! This is so sad, but these are the only pictures I have from the weekend (you know you are having a good time when you get the prop hats out!)

Saturday was spent recovering from a fun filled night by eating - A LOT! We went downtown to get breakfast at Sandcastle - seriously so good - an all you can eat buffet filled with biscuits, hash browns, bacon ... mmm.  After breakfast, Johnathan and I took everyone on a tour of the island. Afterwards, we went and got on the boat for a short boat ride and rode over to Coastal Kitchen for lunch. After lunch, we went home and rested for a bit, then went to CJ's downtown to get pizza! We then walked to a local bar to watch the rest of the UGA game.

Mayer, Beau and Matt had to leave Sunday morning to get back to Atlanta, but we had the best time seeing them! The weather was beautiful again on Sunday, so Johnathan, Brendan and I went back on the boat to piddle around and tried to catch some fish. We went down a little river that goes through the Ocean Forest Golf Course at the Lodge.  Johnathan and Brendan fished while I tried to get some sun!

Tuesday night we went took our nephews, Jack and TG, with Jay and Laura to the Brunswick Fair! Johnathan has been the past few years with the boys, so I was excited to go! The boys had such a fun time riding all of the rides. Here are a few pictures from the night - 

Here is a view from the top of the ferris wheel - everything looked so pretty from up here!
