Every summer, Andriece and I hit the road to explore a new town. New Hope has been on my to do list since the fall and I must say, it was well worth the wait.
Andriece may be one of my favorites to enjoy new things with because she gets me...and by that I mean, as soon as we park, she knows the first thing I need is a drink (and possibly an appetizer depending on the potency of said drink). Then I like to walk around and take in the sights and along the way I point out where we must dine al fresco (and yes, most times we end up tasting things at about 3 restaurants and this does not include dessert). And who can forget shopping. There is always shopping involved. Oh! And she takes great pictures!
Nothing like stumbling across a vintage book store - there is just something about the smell of an authentic book. There is also something about a sign being posted on the book store which states NO pictures and NO phones...yeah, I didn't like that too much.

| Timeless beauty |
 |
| I swear there is nothing like a margarita on a hot summer day |
 |
| New Hope's first prison doors |
 |
| Oh how I love fresh flowers...and they are pink. |
 |
| Cluster's Caramel Corn was delicious! (I think I discovered the party favors for Price's next bday party.) Hey Nicholas! |
 |
| I loved the ambiance of Karla's |
 |
| Will ice cream and coffee be my LAST temptation?! Yikes! |
 |
| Does it really??? |
 |
| Amazing food and drinks at Havana's |
Now you know we HAD to find a bakery - cute little shop.
I was supposed to be taking a picture of Andriece and little did I know she was snapping a pic of me too. My face...I was contemplating climbing on top of the cannon to take a picture butttttt, the length of my dress (and Andriece's mom look) would not let me be great without giving a peep show.
 |
| Don't you always have to try on new glasses when you walk past them?! |
 |
Totally unbothered - and if I drank soda, I would have def grabbed a glass bottle of Coke |
I am not sure what I loved most about this quaint town...the friendly people & shop owners; the vintage benches, signs, and decor; handsome, young gentlemen; the amazing food & drinks; fresh flowers adorning practically everything; the bridges and lake; or could it be Andriece picking up her camera and unleashing her passion again. All of these factors culminated into a great day of reflection to focus on achieving new hopes and girl time. We cannot wait to go back.
