Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Most of you know that St. Patty's day holds a special place with us, considering Dave and I met on this festive day. What's shocking is that it was 10 years ago this year!!!! I had no idea he was that old!!!

We celebrated a bit early this past weekend by participating in the Chasing Snakes 10krun/4k walk to benefit some of the local churches' community efforts. I think it goes without saying that we chose the walk this year. Lily did great and got a handful of extra beads which are by far one of her favorite things. Lambie, of course, had to come for the ride. We were just so thankful that the rain held off for such a fun morning! May the luck of the Irish be with you! Oh yeah, just as a reminder Lily was born on 07-07-07....

Catching up

Well Mrs. Mattie took another two week vacation, which of course meant that we called in the troops so to speak. Nana and Papa graciously came down to provide stellar grandchild care for a week. We loved having them as usual and as always are so appreciative!

They had many adventures throughout their week. Luckily, I was finally not working on a Saturday and was able to join them on a quick trip to Asheville. Dave was unfortunately out of town. Tupelo Honey Cafe, The Biltmore, the Grove Park Inn and the Mellow Mushroom were all on the agenda. The pics are from downtown Asheville, The Biltmore and the last is on the porch of the Grove Park. (Big thanks to Anna for the free passes to the Biltmore!!)
