One Tree Hill Fan Girl Moment

I'm not sure if I said it here before but I truly loved One Tree Hill. I didn't watch the show when it began although so many of my friends did. It wasn't until a vacation to Wilmington, North Carolina back in 2009 that I finally got into the show. Wilmington is where the filming of OTH took place (Dawson's Creek too. Another favorite) It was when we took a movie tour of Wilmington that we found out it is it's own little Hollywood. After being there I couldn't help but start watching when we returned home. I got a little addicted thanks to Netflix.

I don't follow many celebs on social media but I do follow Sophia Bush, who I adore. Over the weekend she posted a few photos of her OTH cast mates and I nearly fainted at the thought of a reunion movie/show. Yeah total fangirl moment! Apparently there was a One Tree Hill Convention in Paris over the weekend. Who knew there was such a thing???? It was actually the second convention called "From Wilmington to Paris"I can hear Gavin DeGraw in my head already. There are some rumors about a reboot. I am a little undecided on that though. The 90210 reboot was TERRIBLE. Almost all of the cast were there even crazy Nanny Carey and Skills but no Chad Michael Murray, whomp, whomp.

Either way, I got all nostalgic over the show but also my time spent in Wilmington. Brian and I have so many happy memories there. I love the north east but if I had the choice to move Wilmington would be the place. It's a perfectly, charming port city with lots of southern charm. I could absolutely see myself there .

Wilmington, NC

While on our vacation we stayed about 40 minutes outside of Wilmington, North Carolina. Wilmington is a small port city off the Cape Fear Coast with a charming history. Wilmington is probably known for a large amount of movies and tv shows filmed there. Two of my favorite including One Tree Hill and Dawson's Creek. The shops and restaurants are another favorite of ours. Just a bit of advice. If you are in Wilmington and love jewelry The Polka Dot Flamingo is the place to be! I now have several pieces of jewelry I purchased there and they are my most complimented pieces. Inexpensive too!!!

Brian and I visited Wilmington 3 years ago and we made it a point of going back this year and spending an entire day there. It's so easy to get caught up at one of their outside eateries while watching the river. 

The last time we visited we spent most of our time enjoying the sites on land. We took a horse and carriage ride through the historic homes and we did a walking Hollywood tour. This time around we got on board a catamaran and enjoyed the sites up and down the river. 

It's funny how I look at these pictures and the pictures from 2 years back. So much has changed in our lives but I love the memories made. 

Little Bits of Happiness...2

I had such a good time last week sharing my little bits of happiness.  I really need this after the terrible day yesterday. Considering some wicked, mean woman called me fat at the gym. I'll probably blog more about it when the smoke stops shooting from my ears. Oh and to top off my day I got my finger stuck between two rocks while spring cleaning at work. I cried a lot yesterday! It sucked, no doubt

I think this could be my new fave link up.
