Two little pumpkins and a wedding

This weekend we headed up to Mom and Dad's for our friends' wedding in Hendersonville. We were planning to just relax and enjoy not having a plan. Then we got up Saturday morning and the guys working on Mom and Dad's house were there replacing the back door and getting started on building the screened porch. This equaled lots of hammering which was driving Rags CRAZY. So, we took Lisa and Lucas up on the offer and we headed over to their house for lunch. We'd discovered that we had matching Halloween outfits for Emmy and Will so we dressed them up. Aren't they the cutest?? It was nice to let the dogs play, the babies play and the adults got to eat lunch in peace while the babies napped. Woohoo!

Saturday afternoon Mom and I did some shopping while Emmy napped with her Daddy. After dinner we visited with Grandmommie, cousin Jessica and her hubby Nick. Emmy fell asleep and slept with Grandmommie for a bit. So sweet!

Sunday we'd decided to skip church and head on up to Hendersonville and go to Sky Top orchard for apples and to take pictures. The wedding was at Camp Kanuga so we thought we'd make a day of it. When I told Lisa our plan, she got excited because they had wanted to go to an orchard this fall, so she talked Lucas into skipping church, too, so we all headed up for lunch in Hendersonville then went to Sky Top. I wish we'd had more time, but it was fun! Sadly, we did not have time to wait in the long line for apple cider donuts. We'll just have to try again next year! The drive up was wonderful, the trees must have been close to peak. I can't remember the last time I saw them so beautiful!

So, Charles, Emmy, and I headed over to Kanuga for the wedding. We did a quick change of clothes and I fed Emmy. She fell asleep right before the service started, and she mostly slept through the hour long ceremony, save for a bit of fussing when the music stopped after the processional. The child loves music, that's for sure! Here's Emmy with the groom, and then the bride and groom, Joe and Kathy. Congrats you two! It was a beautiful day, a beautiful setting and a wonderful ceremony.

After a quick chili supper, we gave Emmy a bath and headed home. It was a nice weekend! But, we look forward to being home this weekend and getting some yard work done. It's time to plant pansies!

I'll leave you with my favorite photo at Kanuga after the wedding. Have a good week!
