Savannah Babymoon
















Damian and I returned from a wonderful trip to Savannah to celebrate our first anniversary, and to take some time for ourselves before our little guy comes. It was fantastic, start to finish! Savannah was completely beautiful, and we had a great time! We enjoyed the distinctive architecture during our many (many, many) walks around the Historic District. We stayed at the Savannah Bed & Breakfast Inn for the duration of our trip- Saturday through Wednesday. Damian and I both enjoyed one particular candy shop- we went there so many times that they eventually stopped IDing me. That's really saying something in a busy tourist town like that! We ate in several restaurants, including Paula Deen's "The Lady & Sons" and one called Tubby's. I was very excited to eat at a restaurant called Tubby's because that was the nickname my Grandpa gave my Grandma! Yes, it was a joke nickname- my lovely Grandma has always been quite svelte! For both Damian and I, our favorite part of the trip was having some quiet time together while strolling in the gorgeous parks- gotta love the big oak trees dripping with Spanish moss! So many wonderful memories!!!

  1. Ah-Katie, you are still alive. Thank goodness. Hasn't Heather taught you how to keep up with your blogs? Anyway, it sounds like a great trip. You and Heidi will have to compare notes about Georgia-one of her favorites. Glad you had such a great time!

  2. I actually like Damian's chin dripping with Spanish moss. A beard certainly suits him.

    So glad you had a good time!

    And, I want to speak now on Grandma Abel's behalf..."Tubby" is no name to suit her! But, very endearing none the less.
