Mom, Alyssa, and I road tripped down to South Carolina. We left at 5 AM on Thursday. The drive was 15 hours long and slightly brutal. My contribution to the driving consisted of taking the first shift of three hours. I only drove for three hours on the way back too, but Mom and Alyssa didn't mind. We stayed in South Carolina until Monday, leaving at 6 AM (so 5 AM our time because it is in a different time zone). The trip was so much fun! We rented a big house with the New York Pojmans, Grandma, and the Gergles. On Friday and Sunday we spent the majority of the day at Folly Beach, which was only a ten minute drive from our rented house.
Saturday was cousin Anna's wedding. The reception was at a hotel that was right along the beach. An open bar allowed us to FINALLY get Beau to live a little and have some drinks ;) I discovered that a whisky ginger is rather delicious. The center pieces at each table was a hugeee cupcake. They were made by one of the winners of the TV show Cupcake Wars. Pretty Sweet. Our table had a red velvet one, which was apparently in high demand. Alyssa and I were on the other side of the dance floor plotting to steal the cupcakes from the unused tables. We both looked over at our table and witnessed a man take a huge slice of the red velvet cupcake from our table without any of our cousins who were sitting at the table noticing. We then determined that it was a cupcake free for all. We also managed to leave the ceremony with three huge and uneaten cupcakes, which our family devoured for dessert the following night. I usually don't make posts that are so "diary like" but I feel like it is necessary to document this major event of the summer. The days are flying by way too quickly. I can't believe that it is already mid June. Time needs to slow down is all that I can say.
