Labor day weekend recap

Hi there!

Did everyone have a nice long weekend?

I certainly did!  The rest of our furniture arrived for the nursery on Saturday, and we absolutely love it.  There are just a few more things to do now, such as hang the wall art, put the curtains up, and wait for our area rug to arrive.

Michael and I constantly go in the room and just admire it.  It is so crazy to believe that our little baby will be occupying that space soon!

On Saturday, we also took a drive to Camden, South Carolina (home of the Carolina Cup), and we had lunch at a cute little restaurant called Carolina Cafe.

 

 

After lunch, we explored the town a bit…

 

 

 

We saw some gorgeous old homes and the cutest fire station in the world.

 

 

It even had its own little private garden.

 

 

I love the town’s slogan (which is displayed on all of the street poles):  “Grab life by the reigns.”

 

 

Perfect for a horse racing town, isn’t it?

On our drive home, we passed something that has fascinated me for a few years now…

 

 

These two bikes have been alongside the highway for ages.  There used to be a “For Sale” sign in front of them, but I guess that the owners just want someone to take them now.

I keep on waiting for the day when we drive past the spot, and the bikes are gone (although I highly doubt those bikes are functional anymore).

The rest of the weekend consisted of more scenic drives (where we got to witness a cow peeing), lots of relaxation, and good food, including a notable trip to IHOP (they actually have a lot of healthier options now!).

 

 

When we were leaving the restaurant, some man looked at my belly and said, “Wow!  You sure ate a lot!”

Actually, lots of strangers have been making comments about my bump lately.  I guess that I really look pregnant these days or something. 

I’m keeping my eyes peeled today for George Clooney, who is supposedly in town for the DNC.  A George sighting would be even more exciting than spotting a peeing cow (which is quite the scene, by the way).

What did you do over the weekend? 

Have you ever had a celebrity sighting?

Have a great day!
