wedding fun

We went to Atlanta last weekend for my cousin Ben's wedding. It was an absolutely beautiful wedding with gorgeous weather for the outdoor festivities.

Beth road-tripped with us to the wedding. We shopped our way there - Mast General Store and World of Clothing in Hendersonville and Moe's and REI in Asheville. (Jeff was looking for new boot but didn't find any.) We checked in to the historic General Morgan Inn in downtown Greeneville, TN - where most of the guest were staying and where the reception was being held. We had so much fun running into friends in the lobby and on the elevator. I love weddings were everyone stays in the same place! The wedding was beautiful and the reception was a blast.

Fun on the Farm...

Jeff and I went to an engagement party for some of our friends - Brent & Whitney - over the weekend. Brent grew up on a farm in Alabama and his family treated us to a day of good, ol' fashioned country fun. The day started with a clay shoot, followed by cocktails, dinner and hanging out around the camp fire!

Here we are -

me - shooting a gun for the 1st time

Jeff - warming up for the tournament

And thanks again to my favorite younger sister - Beth - for hanging out with our kids all weekend so that we could go out of town!

a weekend in the mountains

then (April 18, 1997) & now (October 4, 2008)

For our 10 year anniversary, we spent a glorious weekend in the mountains (read no kids and absolutely beautiful weather). Back then we always stayed at the Brockwell's mountain house in Sky Valley and this time we stayed at a Dillard House Chalet. http://www.dillardhouse.com/

So much was the same yet different...

-

We drove down to the water fall at Sky Valley and took a few pictures. Then we hiked to the top of Rabun Bald (the 2nd highest point in GA) - and the site of our engagement way back when. The view was spectacular and well worth the hike and it was great to remember the last time we had been there. After our hike, we ate lunch and shopped around in Highlands. We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing with a couple of cold drinks, a good book (Amy) and some college football on TV (Jeff). For dinner we enjoyed a family style dinner at the Dillard House. We should have taken a picture of all the food on our table - so many bowls that they barely fit! And no trip to Sky Valley would be complete without a round of golf. All I can say about the golf is that the weather was nice (cool for early October), the company splendid and my game got (a little) better as the round went on.

Maybe next time, we'll take the kids...
