Weekend Recap

We had such a fun weekend!  Friday night we were lucky enough to celebrate the wedding of our good friends Lauren & Aaron.  The ceremony was at Stella Maris on Sullivan's and the reception was at the Daniel Island Club.  The bride (and groom!) looked stunning and the reception was a BLAST.  The wedding was black tie so it was fun to get all dressed up.  I had never seen Mr. R in a tux before and WOW he sure cleans up nice:).

Mr. and Mrs. Barber!

Saturday Mr. R and I recovered and had a nice lunch with one of my co-workers on Daniel Island.  Then we had one of those extremely last minute, extremely impromptu nights that was so fun with our good friends and soon to be neighbors the MacCoys (check them out over on Tales of the Traveling Peach).  Basically they grab whats in their fridge, combine it with ours and we try and make something.  Unfortuneatly this time we ended up having to make a grocery store run...

My summer drink of choice...pinot grigio & sprite zero spritzer--try it!

Sunday, Mr. R and I took a little trip to Columbia to meet his momma and bring her back to CHS with us for the week.  We also got to see two of our nieces!!!  They are SO cute!

Gourmet Grilled Cheese

Mr. R and I had our regular date with our friends the MacCoys last night for dinner and our weekly Amazing Race viewing.  We are still trying to come up with a catchy name for our get togethers so if anyone has any suggestions, please pass along! 

Last night we dined on "gourmet grilled cheese," salad, Mrs. Fearnow's Brunwick Stew (yes in a can, its the closest to Eastern NC I can find AND Walmart sells it!) and wine (duh).  Here is ours (I had brie, munster & tomato on sourdough) and some other stomach growling renditions for you to try!
