Birthday Date: Potted Potter + The Fig Tree

April 20, 2015 by Julie 58 Comments

Spirit Square Charlotte

My birthday isn’t until next Monday (the big 3-0, baby!), but Ryan and I celebrated early this weekend! Why? Well, the answer isn’t exactly a fun one. A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that Ryan hurt his knee pretty badly during a soccer game. He made an appointment with a doctor and after an…

Ryan’s mom came in town this weekend! We were so, so happy to have her here in North Carolina for her very first visit to our new house! Truthfully, I ended up completely neglecting my camera for most of the weekend in favor of simply soaking up time with Ryan and my mother-in-law, but I…

Corned Beef and Cabbage Creamy Potato Leek Soup
