a look back at 2014

2014 ... what a year. if i'm being honest, it definitely had its fair share of difficult moments. some of which came from all the change - we bought a new house and i started a full time internship [while balancing multiple part time jobs]. then there were the growing pains that simply came with being immersed in the real world. i tell ya, that place is not always very nice ;). but despite the hardships, there were also some really wonderful times and sweet memories made. i've compiled a little list of them below, highlighting my favorite memories and blog posts.

1. we started off the year with a big snow storm...in south carolina! this isn't something we get to see much, so we had so much fun going on walks, drinking coffee by the fire, and snuggling up on the couch.

2. we hosted a little valentine's day dessert party with a few of our close friends.

3. i put together a spring tablescape featuring bright florals and vintage plates. it was featured on curbly, here.

4. we visited nashville to celebrate our 2 year wedding anniversary. you can see those posts here, here, and here. i also shared a little wedding video i put together.

5. i started a new series, 'around town', where i started featuring my favorite local spots. some of my favorite posts include due south coffee shop (above)..
