The Grove Park Inn Resort & Spa

This place is AMAZING!!! We went there for a long Memorial Day weekend (Saturday through Wednesday) and met up with Corey & Danielle. It was a great few days and I have lots of pictures from Danielle (thank you!) since our camera is dumb and runs through batteries like there's no tomorrow. If you want to check out the Grove Park Inn website, click here. I highly suggest you go there if you ever have the opportunity. The resort is beautiful, there's a lot to do, and you're close to downtown Asheville and the Biltmore Mansion - all places we visited during our trip. On Tuesday we spent our time at the Spa... unbelievable. Check out those pictures if you get a chance! I'll leave you with just a couple to give you a preview of the albums. Enjoy :)

A Weekend to Remember

This past weekend we had the privilege of attending the wedding of Kurt Perkins & Lindsay McCoid - 2 friends whose lives (now joined) bring together so many different "worlds" if you will. We first met Lindsay at Houghton where she was living down the hall from my sister. Mis & Lin have been very close friends ever since - over 10 years! Kurt was introduced to us by our friends, Mike & Rachel, when he was living/working in Buffalo during his last year of chiropractic school. He also knew my brother-in-law from that time at school. Missy introduced Kurt & Lindsay during an annual New Year's weekend in Philly with a large group of friends. That entire crew was gathered again this past weekend for the celebration of their wedding - and what a party it was! :) The wedding was beautiful (despite the weather) and if you click here, you can view more pictures. Here's just one that I took from Rachel's website. Beautiful job, Rach!!


After the wedding we spent the rest of the weekend in New Jersey & Philly with the group of friends I mentioned before. It was great catching up with all of them - and meeting their beautiful kids! Shane also celebrated his 27th birthday on Saturday, May 17th so we had real Philly Cheesesteaks for lunch and then went out for dinner with everyone that evening. We had a blast during our visit, and even though the drive was long... it was worth every minute!
