a lovely week of vacation.

blakey & i had a wonderful wonderful vacation last week!  we went to aspen with his family & i am so excited to tell you & show you about it.  it was gorgeous & fun & full of delicious food.  so blog posts abound this week!  {i even have one more post about our trip to nashville.  a busy couple we have been!}

{picking tanky up as soon as we got back!}

you know how you always feel like you need a vacation after your vacation?  we have started a tradition of coming back a day or two early, so we can relax before heading back to work.  it really is a huge to have just a day or two to unwind, unpack, & sleep.  so that is what we did this weekend.  & it was marvelous.

 {an afternoon at the park with our little guy!}

our favorite bbq restaurant in birmy, saw's bbq, just opened a new spot in one of the new up & coming areas of birmy.  so we had to enjoy some good ole alabama bbq as soon as we got back.

 {pulled pork baker.  yummmm.}

 {pbr art.  love it.}

& then we were off to our favorite patio at moe's bbq to watch some march madness on the beautiful spring day!  

after church on sunday, we picked up some delicious picnic food at our local gourmet grocer, v richards, & headed back to the park for an afternoon with the t guy!  we have a feeling this is going to become our favorite sunday afternoon activity.
