First blog ever!

I'm so excited to start this new blog! Our busy schedules and living in Charleston makes it difficult to keep up with friends and family. I hope this blog makes it easier for everyone to keep in touch. I also hope that we can use it as a way to document life's big moments. Maybe I'll start a trend and then everyone will start blogging (fingers crossed)!

We just got back from celebrating Justin's grandmother's (Jojo) 80th birthday! Wow! We had a blast. That party was a western theme so everyone dressed up, we ate barbecue, and line danced! Sherry (Justin's mom) and Sherry (Justin's aunt) did such an amazing job on the party. Shannon created the most beautiful themed cake (pictures to come) and I was in charge of an old-fashioned candy bar. It was so much fun.

Jojo is such a wonderful grandmother-in-law and from the moment I met her, 8+ years ago (long before becoming an Archie), she made me feel apart of the family. Jo lights up a room. She is such a kind and lovely person. I am better for knowing her! If I can figure out how, I'm going to add pictures that Justin took from the party. :o)

That's about all I have time for today. It took forever to figure out how to even start this blog. I have to turn my attention to our big trip!! We're leaving in two weeks for France and Italy!! So excited but more on that later!
