College Tour: Athens

After my five weeks of camp, Mumsy and I set off for USC, UGA, and Alabama! Sadly I didn't get any pictures at USC but I loved it!

We stopped and visited my Aunt and sweet cousins in Atlanta before heading to Athens, and we went to lunch at the Swan Coach House!

Lunch was so lovely - I highly recommend the pimento cheese and chicken salad sandwiches!


Isn't the Swan House gorgeous?


After our delicious lunch, we visited the Beverly Bremer Silver Shop! Oh my word y'all, if I can picture heaven, I want it to be this place.  I narrowed down my race for choosing a silver pattern and received some great tips, which I'll share in a later post!


Ensley even stopped in for the evening and made us a yummy vegan dinner!

The next morning we woke up, and were off to Athens!


Sidenote: If you ever go from Atlanta to Athens and need a Starbucks, do not wait until you're half an hour into the drive to start wanting one.  It's either ATL or Athens, there's no in between to stop in! Mumsy and I learned this the very hard way! Sadly, I didn't think to snap any pictures on the tour (Blackberry problems!) but after our tour and browsing around Clayton Street, we drove out to the new University of Georgia Health Science Campus! It used to be the Naval Supply School, and Royar Square is located there, named for my Great-Grandfather. 




I absolutely fell in love with UGA and would love to keep being a bulldog for another four years!

Have you ever visited Athens? What's your favorite place to go?

Almost Heaven, West Virginia!


This past week has been so much fun! Just sayin’ this will be a long post due to the pictures. You have been warned. On Friday, the fam & I drove to West Virginia. We stopped at the outlets and I got a fabulous J.Crew romper and a Dooney & Bourke Letter Carrier. 
Then we stopped in Charlottesville for lunch and PB drove us around the UVA Campus.  We stopped at Bodo’s bagels for lunch.  If you are ever in the Charlottesville area, you have to go to Bodo’s!
We finally arrived in Beckley and went to dinner with the whole family. It was great to see everyone!
PB, Ensley and me
On Saturday, Ensley and I went shopping at Gabe’s.  Gabe’s is one of my favorite stores except for the fact that there are no stores south of Winchester, VA.  I got an $80.00 Express Dress for $15.00!  I love a good bargain! 

That night, we all went to the Black Knight Country Club, which I have been going to for as long as I can remember.  It was a wonderful dinner enjoyed by all!  We then retired to my Grandparent’s house for cake & champagne! 

PB and Me

Stay tuned for my Colorado Recap!
