LONGGGGG overdue...
The title is fitting.. one because I have been a terrible blogger and two because we had visitors this weekend.. that were long overdue! Granddaddy, Grandy, Aunt Shell, and cousin Katelyn came to visit us this weekend! (We were sad that cousins Daniel, Karson, Dawson, and Lindi.. along with Uncle Shane, Aunt Jenn, and Uncle Jeff couldn't make it, but we will see them at the beach in May.)
Friday we took them to Pelancho's, which has become our favorite Mexican restaurant. It is rare we get to experience international cuisine (if you can call tacos, taquitos, and fajitas.."cuisine") with the Kepley family. Usually when the Kepleys visit, Kris' grandpa comes and he doesn't do anything but an American fare! It was lots of fun and Grace Anne enjoyed smiling and keeping everyone's attention. Luckily we did take a picture of the big annoying mascot-Pelancho's-parrot that kept messing with Daddy... and trying to play peek-a-boo with a 3 month old. (Grace Anne looked at that bird thing like it was an idiot!)
Saturday, Daddy and Granddaddy watched basketball--like the good ol' days-- while the girls shopped! After the shopping and basketball (which included a major Volunteer win over the University of Kentucky Wildcats), we went to Litton's. Litton's is a Knoxville favorite that dates back to the 1940s. ESPN has visited on "Todd's Taste of the Town", Peyton Manning often stops by when in town, and It has also become a Granddaddy favorite! OWe all love their burgers and onion rings.. and even fresh cut fries, but the desserts are AMAZING! The lemon cookies are a Mommy-favorite, but I opted for the Neapolitan cake last night.. jealous? Well, come to Knoxville and we will take you!
We had a great weekend. We finished our Sunday off with naps, playing, and a real fun splish splash bath for Grace Anne. She wore herself out with visitors, playing, and talking. We are hopeful of a good night's sleep for the whole family! Our little runt, weighing in at a mere 11lbs and 7 oz., seems to grow and change everyday! Her little blonde hairs are sticking up a lot, she's sleeping through the night more often, and she is continually making her Mommy's and Daddy's hearts happy!
