It has been a busy family & food filled weekend at our house! Josh’s parents, sister & her boyfriend were in town visiting this weekend. They were on the hunt for a house for Josh’s parents and found some great spots. Aside from house hunting, we relaxed and ate a few delicious meals out. First up, one of our favorite Charleston spots, Grill 225. Josh’s Dad & Josh:
Jenny & her boyfriend Mike:
We asked the waiter to surprise us with a dessert and he brought out Josh’s Dad’s favorite….lava cake:
The meal was fantastic! Josh and I are actually returning on Friday for restaurant week. I can’t wait!
Sunday morning, we hit up my second favorite brunch spot in Charleston, Sea Biscuit Cafe:
Me & Josh’s Mom. It was colddd on the porch so I stayed all bundled up:
I got coffee, an English muffin with peach jelly and a fruit plate. Their fruit plates are always delicious:
The rest of the day will be spent on football & more house hunting. Josh’s Eagles are playing…fingers crossed that they win. How was your weekend??

Sounds like a great weekend!
My weekend was pretty low-key, but enjoyable all the same :) Also celebrated my parents' anniversary yesterday!
Good luck on the house hunting. I know that can be really stressful. ;)
This weekend is going well. I've gotten some relaxing in, gotten some stuff done, went to a little party last night, and actually found some really interesting women to talk to that I hadn't met before. Since moving back to the states, this was the first time for this! So, it is all good! Time to be productive!
I miss Charleston! I have not been to either one of those restaurants! Are you supposed to get snow/ice in Charleston? We're about to get some nastiness on my end of the state.
Oh I would love to have that huge plate of fruit!
Uh oh big game day today! The Man is a huge Packer fan...!! Good luck with the house hunting :)

Food looks great, and it looks like you had a great weekend with your fam!
I thought I'd spend all weekend working, but I got sidetracked by going out with a friend!
Such cute pictures of you and your family!! Sounds like a perfect weekend to me :) I did a lot of running, relaxing, errands, and some working this weekend - it was really refreshing.
That fruit plate looks delicious. I love when restaurants actually put forth effort into their unconventional dishes.
Glad you had a great weekend!
I always love your family pics! Good luck on the house hunting!
My weekend has been crazy too many things going on!

the weekends go by too fast don't they! enjoy your week!

Good luck on the house hunt! I know it can be exhausting, but also a lot of fun to imagine a life in all the different houses you find.
There aren't many things better than family & food filled weekends in my book. :)
Wow that's a good amount of fruit for a restaurant fruit plate. Impressive! Sounds like a great weekend! :)
What a cute family!!
And that fruit plate looks so fresh - what a great breakfast!
My weekend was pretty lowkey, but very busy still. Not looking forward to Monday morning - they're the worst. :)
I'VE BEEN HERE! I think we went to one that was slightly outside of Charleston? Either way, it was amazing :)
What a fun weekend! That fruit plate looks so amazing:)
What cute pics, glad you had a great weekend!
I was hoping your weekend would be great with the fam! I always like going out when I have guests in town--there are a few good spots that really showcase our areas specialties. I like cooking in too though sometimes!

Mmm.....that fruit looks perfect! I SO miss delicious fresh fruit in the winter time. :-(
It looks like you guys all had a great weekend together! Love family time. I went shopping yesterday with my sis and we got to hang out for awhile, which helped cheer me up after the Colts game Saturday. :-)
Each time you post about all the great restaurants in your area it makes me want to visit more and more!! One day I will get there ... hopefully soon!
Nothing better than a food filled weekend.......
Looks like a great weekend. That fruit salad looks absolutely divine!
xo
What a wonderful weekend! Hope you and Josh had lots of luck house hunting!
josh's family is all so cute! hope they found some good spots. and i agree - GOOD fruit plates are simply the best!!!
What a fun weekend!! Love family time and I bet you had some awesome meals. That fruit plate is beautiful!!
the pictures aren't working for me for some reason :( i'm going to email you bc i have some questions re: charleston!!
I love your scarf...and the fruit plate!!! :)
sounds like an excellent weekend...you are so pretty!
Sounds like your weekend was a lot of fun! My weekend was a lot of fun. I can't believe it's over already!
I'm surprised you didn't go for something warm for breakfast, like oatmeal or an omelet!
This weekend was all kinds of baby-prep action and some Netflix watching. We're getting into Damages, it's pretty good!
OMG Josh's parents are adorable!!!! :)
hey E!!! Sounds like a perfect weekend! mine was quite low key (just the way I like it!)
Charleston Cafe...I HAVE to go there sometime in the near future!!
That fruit plate does look delicious! What fun times with the family. I always loved house hunting.
My weekend seemed like it flew by. After my long run on Saturday I was pretty tuckered out so we just played games with my parents then spent some time playing card games with our best friends the next night. Low key and fun :)
Love that big fruit plate. Glad you had a nice weekend with family!
man, isn't family time the best?! looks like you guys had some real quality time. i love your scarf! sorry about the eagles.. but can i say THANK GOD they lost, otherwise my house would NOT be a fun place.. marshall is a tad too passionate about football. have a great week! :)
Okay so I am seriously jealous of your return to Grill 225 this week. LOVE the pics Erica! We had so much fun! Am going to try your crab bisque Erica style for dinner Saturday night. Love you your creations!
