Sorry for Grayson overload, but over at the Poe household, we make a pretty big deal about birthdays. I LOVE birthdays and love celebrating, so that’s just what we do. I basically force it upon the rest of the Poe fam. Grayson had a huge birthday celebration weekend, with school being cancelled on Friday and a birthday party on Saturday. …
Article just out and originally written for The Upstate Clutch. Check out their Monday Newsletter! Initially I started to title this, “Healthy Holidays”, but who would read that? And, I honestly believe in balance and not necessarily depriving yourself from anything if you don’t have to. I love to indulge and celebrate all the good things that Thanksgiving and Christmas have…
This isn’t your normal Charleston weekend trip recap. But this weekend, we had the pleasure of joining Southern First Bank for a retreat down at Wild Dunes Resort. I won’t talk much about Nelson’s job or company, but I will say this; they are family and he LOVES his job. I know that so few people can say that, but…
Now that the eclipse is behind us, we can get back to regularly scheduled programming aka your LIFE! BUT, I must say this..that was phenomenal and honestly so much better than I expected. With all the annoying hype, I was afraid it might disappoint, but I was WRONG. Our Creator showed up and definitely showed out for us on Monday,…
Before Summer is over (insert CRYING EMOJI!), I wanted to share a few super easy Summer Treats that have been my go-to for cookouts! I will say that I am SO sad that Summer is coming to an end, and I am all for an endless Summer. Summers are BUSY and HOT, but they just feel more casual. They are…
We had a long weekend / short beach vacation to Kiawah Island with some of our best friends. One would argue that a vacation with kids isn't truly a vacation, it is a trip, and I would AGREE, for sure, but we had the BEST trip with these little ones. We had a blast and made many memories! We were…
Years ago, 2 of my best friends from college and I named our husbands “Triple Trouble”. Simply because when the three of them are together, they are TROUBLE! Don’t get me wrong…we have some of the BEST husbands out there and they aren’t breaking the law or anything, but I can tell you one thing…they are up to no good…
Friday afternoon, my husband and I are sitting on the couch with the boys, (pretty exhausted after he had been gone all week, and then we had taken the boys to swim lessons and ice cream afterwards…), and I look to him and say, “So, should I do that triathlon tomorrow?” He looks back at me and says, “Sure, why…
I use the phrase “weekend” lightly because I feel like even though we had to work Wednesday thru Friday, we kind of tried to act like we were still on vacation and Friday rolled around real quick! Gotta love a nice, long holiday! Who knew that so many people took off and closed the entire week of the 4th! I’m…
Friday For lunch on Friday, I met 2 friends at Pomegranate on Main. Pomegranate is one of my all-time favorite restaurants in Greenville, but I had never been for lunch, and unfortunately had to take the boys to swim lessons afterwards, so had to skip out on the oh so delicious Pomegranate Margarita. I was really tempted to try one…
