What I'm Loving Wednesday: Christmas Edition

{ONE} Festival of Lights

This is the first year that I have attended the Festival of Lights on James Island here in Charleston.  I have to say I was quite impressed!  It's been years since I have gone to the one near my hometown, so this was definitely a treat.  My friend Maureen and I decided to have a date night and tour the county park filled with millions of lights.  We even parked the car and walked through the some scenes on foot.  I didn't take many pictures, but all the scenes were gorgeous, including the entrance to the park.

 Sand sculpture.  How amazing is that?

{TWO} Football Tickets

On Tuesday, the  hubby and I received our Capitol One Bowl tickets in the mail!  What does this have to do with Christmas you may ask?  Well, it is part of our Christmas gift to one another.  We are going to Tampa for New Year's and then driving over to Orlando to watch the Gamecocks play!  This will be my first bowl game, and I am super excited!  My old roomie & friend, Collins (who lives in Tampa) & her sister will be joining us as well!  Watch out Florida, the Fenders are coming to town!

{THREE} Christmas Shopping

I am almost finished with my list!  I only have a few more items to pick up and I will be ready for next weekend.  Bradley and I finished a good portion last night online, as we do every year.  It's so convenient to be able to shop from the comfort of your couch.  I am also exciting about the gift I am "re-gifting" for our White Elephant gift exchange at work tomorrow!  More on that to come later.

What are you up to these days?  Have you finished your holiday shopping?
