Well hello there y’all!  Ah, it is so good to be BACK!  Life has been CRAZY since we got engaged.  We are getting ready for Spring at The Retail Therapist, planning a wedding, AND opening a tanning salon, Beach Therapy, hopefully in the next WEEK, yay!  We set our date for April 28, 2018, and you are probably thinking, “wow, why so far from now?” But for us, life doesn’t go on when we get married-someones life completely changes aka mine, as we currently live 6.5-7 hours away from each other and one of us has to relocate for at least a couple more days than we get to see each other now. Plus, I wanted a Spring wedding (most vendors I wanted were booked this April), and a summer at our lake house with NOTHING to do but to enjoy the lake, as it is our favorite thing to do.  With that being said, we set a date, found a venue, booked our photographer, and I found my wedding gown.  Shawn and I have also met with florists and my mom, brother, and I have been working with a wedding planner, my dear Susan who I am THRILLED that she is able to be a huge part of our big day.  When March rolls around, the store gets SUPER busy until the end of December and the more I get done now, the less I have to when it is harder to just up and run to Lake Norman on a Wednesday to look at the venue, meet with vendors, or check out bands for our wedding.

Anyways, I get my hair done in Myrtle Beach so I had to throw in a quick trip to South Carolina to see my sweetheart and get my hair “did,” you know?!  Saturday, Shawn wanted to “ride around to get a glass of Sangria and some appetizers.” We found ourselves in Litchfield at The Litchfield Inn hotel bar, Austin’s maybe?  We love “local” places, and everyone in there was 60+, but we had a beautiful view and cold drinks so we could not have been happier.  Since I haven’t been able to get my hair done in 6+ weeks (I normally go every 4 weeks), hats have been my everyday go to accessory and I LOVED that I had brought this one last minute as the weather was over 70 degrees on Saturday!  By the beach it was a little chilly so I am glad I had this scarf to throw around my arms.  I HATE blanket scarves because they’re SO thick to wear like a scarf, but I like them just casually thrown around like I did here.
