We drove down to Charleston to celebrate my 30th birthday with my parents. When we are driving down 526 to Mt. Pleasant this view never gets old! I get so excited just seeing all the water, the bridge and am always reminded of how wonderful and mighty God is. Charleston alone is such a beautiful creation! I had a great time celebrating getting old with my family! haha! We relaxed a lot, ate lots of good food and sat on the porch in the PERFECT weather that Charleston had (seriously I don't remember it ever being so perfect, no humidity, high 60's and sunny). 
We met everyone at the Mellow Mushroom Friday night. Grady, Richard, Didough, Josh and Neely.
Meme and Grady. He was wanting to get either her necklace or glasses the whole night!
My birthday breakfast! YUMMY!!! I wish I was eating this right now. I even had a chocolate petifour! On Sunday morning Meme babysat Grady so Richard and I could go to Atlanticville for brunch (are you catching this is my favorite type of food). My brother, Ty, works there and made us a delicious breakfast. I forgot my camera, but we had fried oysters, shrimp and grits, french toast, bacon and a brownie with vanilla bean ice cream and raspberry glaze for dessert. Oh my, I am drooling just writing this. Anyone living in Charelston or who visits needs to go there for brunch on Sunday. It's on Sullivan's Island.
Grady loves Cooper and we decided to let him take a ride!
On our way into Longhorn.
Grady and his gorgeous Aunt Neely!
He was giving her LOTS of cuddles at dinner.
The family!
Grady playing with Uncle Ty's hair.
My Dad took some awesome pictures of Grady while he was in the hammock on the porch. I love the colors in this one.
Of course we have a thumb picture.
On our way home Sunday he was awake most of the ride, but happy thankfully! For almost an hour he sat just like this. He looked so bored. I know the days are coming when we'll hear a million times, "Are we there yet? How much longer?"
He even gave a few giggles. He laughs at himself in his mirror and plays with his feet.
A stop in Columbia for gas. We let Grady in the driver's seat to stretch out.
