Quick Weekend Recap

Hi babes!  Adam & I spent this past weekend visiting our friends who live in Hilton Head, South Carolina.  We had the absolute BEST time relaxing & catching up with our good friends who we haven't seen since their wedding last summer in New York.  For me, it was especially nice to share in some girl + pregnancy talk since my friend is also pregnant and is just a little ways behind me!  We were able to compare pregnancy symptoms, and chat about all things baby related without driving our husbands absolutely nuts :)

It was just a quick trip for us; we drove up from Miami Friday morning and made it into South Carolina about 7 hours later.  On the way there I kept seeing signs everywhere on the freeway for Chick-Fil-A {which I had never tried before}, and after a very serious discussion about how it's the absolute best chicken, Adam convinced me to stop and have lunch at the popular fast food joint.  This was my first time having any form of fast food in probably close to 7 or 8 years so I was a little hesitant at first but decided to indulge because a) I'm pregnant and was starrrrrving, and b) there wasn't a whole lot of healthy options on the road.  HOLY YUM!  It's a good thing that we don't have those close by us because those chicken strips were entirely too good! 

We arrived in Hilton Head on Friday evening, got settled in and went out to dinner.  On Saturday, our friend had to work {they own the outdoor furniture store, Palm Casual}, so we just had a lazy day exploring the area, looking at real estate, and eatinggggggg everything in sight {I ate SO bad this weekend!}. After he was able to sneak away from the store, we drove into Savannah, GA to hunt for antiques, and have dinner.  We ended up popping into the cutest little store, The Paris Market, which had the greatest little selection of baby clothing & toys {I bought some nursery decor for Isla's room}.  Sunday morning was spent brunching in the absolute cutest little area, Palmetto Bluff.  Seriously, this little town is legit exactly like Pleasantville complete with gas lit street lamps.  After our delicious brunch {I ate 4, count them, 4 jalapeno cheddar biscuits!  So so bad!}, we hit the road and drove home.

I completely intended on taking a bunch of pictures while we were there, but once we arrived it was one of those situations where you're just surrounded by good company & having such a great time that I forgot to photo document everything, and kind of took a break from my phone in general.  Those type of weekends are truly good for the soul!

Here's the few pictures that I did manage to take.....mainly just of the pretty scenery!






This area is beyond gorgeous!  I would love to have a second home here to escape suburban city life every once in a while.  Wearing: AG maternity jeans {here, exact non maternity version found here} //  Crochet tank top {here} //  Hat {found here} //  Sandals {here, extremely similar budget friendly option here}




Sooooooo good but soooooooo bad!




How pretty are these trees?  I was enamored by how beautiful the hanging moss was.




On Saturday, we had lunch on the beach.  Not a bad view ;)




Our friends have the cutest little dog, Rocco.  Kinda makes me want to add another furbaby to our pack!




Sunday brunch in Pleasantville aka Palmetto Bluff.  This area is absolutely darling - full of so much charm!










Hope you guys have a great week!  3 day weekend coming up!! xx
