lately

the last week or so has been a bit of a whirlwind. i was super bummed because i had to spend a week in columbia for my rotations, but my sweet husband surprised me and came down one afternoon. he met me once my classes were over at our favorite coffee spot in columbia - cool beans. i tend to get ancy after sitting at coffee shops for too long, but not this one. there's just something about it.

 ^ we both had a lot of work to do, so the coffee shop occupied us for a good while. i've always admired how hard he works. 

 ^ cool beans is in an old, renovated house. i absolutely love the eclectic decor inside.

 ^ we also spent some time recently at the traveler's rest farmer's market. there was the cutest little vintage booth, goodies, and a fun band. it's such a great way to spend a saturday morning.
