Asheville Getaway 2017

Once a year for the past several years Jimmy and I have been fortunate enough to get away without kids.  We've been to New Orleans, San Diego, one long weekend to the Grove Park Inn and this year we were able to go to Asheville, N.C.  Jimmy mentioned in January that he would like to just "get away" from everything in the midst of studying for his oral boards and I'm a mom of 3 kiddos, handling most of the things on my own (since Jimmy was in the middle of studying for this big exam), so I was like, "YES!"  We found a quaint little cottage with the most breathtaking view of downtown Asheville and getaway is just what we did!  We watched basketball, ate good food, went shopping for my birthday, and went to the Sierra Nevada brewery.  Asheville is FULL of fun things to do but we made sure to be back at the cottage each day by 3 or 4 to take a nap (WHAT'S that???) and just hang out.  It was so refreshing and lovely.  Thank you mom and dad for coming up and keeping our three crazies alive :)  They sure loved their time and were not happy that Memere and Pepere had to leave.

Our view...I mean, WOW!

It's not every day that your husband takes you to an outlet mall and says, "Get whatever you want"  :)
The new-ish Sierra Nevada Brewery (outside Asheville).  This $160 million facility was impressive even to this non-beer fan.  




Their outside area was incredible!  Super family friendly.  Also, lots of bachelor celebrations going on with the games.






Lots of snuggles

The kids got lots of their favorite foods and quality time with Memere and Pepere.  Thankful!
