It’s been SO long since my last Weekend Reads post! I’m slowly easing back into blogging since having Rowan and it feels so good to share some links I’m loving lately. My Weekend Reads posts are always some of my favorite to write because there is always so much to discover and share from around the web. I’m writing this week’s edition of my Weekend Reads series from Cashiers, North Carolina where Edwin, Rowan, and I are for the weekend to have a little belated 3rd wedding anniversary celebration. For our first wedding anniversary, we went to Vermont. For our second wedding anniversary, we went to Maryland.
Now, for our third wedding anniversary, we’re in North Carolina. There are so many wonderful places to see and experience and I love doing so with Edwin. Cashiers made sense this year because it’s a pretty easy drive from Charleston, which was great with our little Rowan love in tow. I hope everyone has a beautiful Sunday! Happy almost Thanksgiving week!
