Asheville Trip

This past Thursday, Ritchie and I got up early, took Jackson out to breakfast and then to daycare. We then set off to Asheville. It was a long drive! We got there around 4 and checked into our hotel. That night we went to one place and had drinks but their menu didn't look to hot, so we walked somewhere else to eat. On saturday I had a class on "What's new in Periodontal Therapy!" Sounds so exciting doesn't it?? While I went to class, Ritchie went to cherokee to the casino. I was worried about this and told him I would kill him if he spent/lost alot! Well he took $100 in cash and came back with $160 so I was happy with that. That night he took me to eat at the Grove Park Inn. It was absolutely beautiful. We got there at 5:30 and the bartender told us they hardly ever had openings to eat but we could check. They just so happened to have a reservation open at 6 so we said "we'll take it!" We ate outside and watched the sunset over the mountains. The food was the best I think I have ever had.

We were planning on staying Saturday night too, but since our hotel room had been less than we were hoping for and since I'm pretty sure I heard a mouse somewhere in there during the middle of the last night, we decided to come on home. We missed Jackson anyway. We went to the Bass Pro Shop before we headed home and ate dinner at the Macaroni Grill. It was a good weekend but I was ready to get back home to my baby. And of course after driving 5 hours to see him, he didn't even act like he cared when we got there to pick him up. Guess that's how it goes though!
