The last days of 22


With the end of my 22nd year quickly approaching, I was starting to feel a bit anxious! After all, 22 was a pretty great year—a summer at the beach, the move to Atlanta and the exploration of a new city.

With the exploration of Atlanta, comes a summer at Turner Field. Lately, I’ve been spending lots of quality time at “The Ted.”

A few weeks back, I had the privilege of meeting up with fellow Carolina alumni (and survivor of Senior Semester) Ryan Bethea.

Ryan & Tiffany met us for a beer and a quick bite (which is ALWAYS the nachos for me and Taylor) at Taco Mac.

Then we headed over to watch the Braves take on the Dodgers. And once again, another Braves win! Go Bravos!!!
 
 
The following week we made the trek to Lake Wateree in Camden, SC, bringing along new friends and meeting up with some of our favorite old ones!

Thank goodness Chris brought the moonshine, as he and Alli needed to play catch up when they arrived. I decided to join her—wouldn’t wanna be a bad hostess! ;)

 
We spent the weekend tanning, floating, sipping and resting.
 
 
 
We even wore out our canine friends.
 
 
 
It was a wonderful Memorial Day weekend, and we headed back to ATL with fresh tans! No one more tan than Whitney, though! J

To end 22, I made one last appearance at Turner Field to cheer on the Braves. FYI folks, we’re 4 for 4 on Braves wins while I’m in attendance!

And after the concert, a great surprise—Run DMC! This was only their third show since 2002 and the first in ATL since 2001.

They played all the hits—“Walk This Way,” “Tricky” and “Mary, Mary.” Although they were a little before my time, we can all appreciate some original rap!

Only thing left to do now is turn 23
Up next: the week-long celebration of M. Caroline Riser, 23.
