Memorial Day

We had a great time in TN for Memorial Day weekend. The drive there and back really wasn't bad at all, and we had pretty good weather considering all the rain in the area. We actually lucked out and only got a little rain, mostly in the evenings.

We stayed at a great Bed and Breakfast on Douglas Lake. The house was gorgeous, and we were so comfy in our room. The bathroom had the cool, old fashioned black and white tiles. And we even got to watch a little French Open in our room. (Sniff, sniff... we got to see some of the French Open in person last year this time!) Breakfast was way yummy, and we got to eat both mornings with a delightful couple from Bakersville, CA.

We had a good bit of time to catch up with Isaac's dad. We grilled hamburgers out on Saturday night, and they were yummy. We brought deviled eggs and homemade banana pudding with us and enjoyed that as well. Isaac's mom and grandmother met us in Knoxville on Sunday morning for a late breakfast. We enjoyed a really nice visit with them and then went to see the movie Shrek 4. It was really cute...

The only real drama of the weekend was my cutting my thumb pretty badly while cutting watermelon. The knife was super sharp and the cut was pretty deep, so off we headed to the ER. We waited over 3 hours to be seen. And then the dr. used some dermabond (read: glue) to close the wound... and I got a lovely tetnus shot (ouch!). It's healing well, even though the glue didn't keep the cut together more than about 18 hours. Ugh. Next time I'll insist on stitches... or just not go to the ER.

So, it was a nice weekend. Isaac's in Mississippi this week and will be back Friday. This is his last trip so I'll be glad to have him home till the baby arrives. The baby is moving around like crazy and is now enjoying kicking me not only in the right rib, but the left one too! I guess it's getting a little cramped in there! : )

I have a work baby shower today, so I'll update on this later. Have a great day!
