Josh and Em Charleston 2025

McKay had FSY  (in Greenville S.C.) and Josh had to work in Florence, South Carolina, so Josh and I decided to do a little getaway to Charleston. The first couple of days were in Florence. I read while Josh worked and then we would go and get dinner and a treat. We ate the first night at Town Hall and then got dessert at Rita's. It's so funny they had one here, because I have been wanting to try it and we were in little Florence and they had it. So random. It was yummy.


The next night we had some yummy Mexican and then went to a peach cobbler place for dessert. It was heavenly! Josh and I were both huge fans. 

We were surprised to find out that Reed and Kendall Peterson were also going to be in Charleston the days we were (we took Christian to FSY with McKay). They invited us to go to dinner with them our first night in Charleston at a place called Fig. It was incredible! We then got cake at a dessert bar after at Carmella's Cafe. The next day we all went on a tour of Charleston with Linda. She was awesome!
Linda knew lots about Charleston and taught us some good stuff (if it's made of brick and stucco, it's pre-civil war. Also air conditioning was a huge thing that made people move out of Charleston.). 
College of Charleston


Military college. 

This church George Washington went to and sat in this pew. 


We did some great shopping while we were there. This is Love Shack Fancy. It got a cute skirt at Abby Glass and a dress Gretchen Scott. Also a few other things. It was so fun!
Charleston post office. 
There are beautiful buildings everywhere in Charleston. 
Crepes and Poke for lunch. I got raspberry and lemon curd and it was life changing. 
Beautiful hotel.
The next morning we got chocolate croissants and then went walking.  


On July 4th there were veterans handing out flags to everyone walking on the bridge. It was fun to see everyone waving flags. 
WE got ready and went shopping and checking out Charleston. 
Lots of pictures of Rainbow Row. 



This was a DAR building, so I had to get a picture with the flag. 

The pineapple fountain. 

I found a cute dress to wear for 4th of July at the Gretchen Scott boutique, so I changed. It was so cute!
