Weekend Review: Elephants, Funnel Cakes, and Friends

Happy Monday friends! I hope y'all had a beautiful weekend filled with love and joy! This past weekend went by so slow and for that I am very thankful. Friday night I hung out with the girls here at USC Aiken getting ready for their Pink Crown Classic Golf Tournament on Saturday morning. 4:30am came early on Saturday and we were all up and making our way to the golf course. I enjoyed getting to see them in action and very proud that in one day they raised a little over $6,500 for breast cancer education and awareness!

Saturday afternoon I was thankful to be granted time off from work to see my family and friends whom I had not seen since starting on the road July 9th. Since this visit was only 4 hours from home, they drove down to see me and let me tell y'all, there are not many things better than seeing your loved ones for the first time in weeks! My heart smiled all night Saturday as we shopped around downtown Aiken and then made our way one hour north to Columbia for the South Carolina State Fair. (I didn't take my purse in and my camera is too bulky for my pocket so you'll have to excuse the poor quality of iPhone pictures.)


Isn't he just so handsome?!?



So sad this picture quality isn't that great, but YES we rode an elephant!
I may or may not have a serious love for Zebras :-)

The sweetest friends in the whole wide world!


What all did you do this weekend friends? I hope whatever it was you spent it with the people you love the most!
