a lot of fun & a lot of food.

like most porter vacations, our weekend could easily be summed up in two words: fun & food!  we spent  a lot of time outside to enjoy the gorgeous weather, we walked around beautiful birmingham, & we, of course, played with tanky.  one goal of my every day life is to wear out that little guy.  & lisa is so good at it!  grandmas.  smart ladies.

two afternoons were spent playing ball with the little at our new favorite rhoades park in highland:

{step 1. throw the ball as far as you can.}

{step 2. tanky ruuuuuuun back with the ball, happy as a clam.}

{tanky loves grandma!}

{hehe.  technology.}

{blakey & his parents!}

{LOVE self timer pics}

{the porters!}

& like every good porter vacation, at least half of our time was spent eating!  we had to take lisa & dave to birmy's best restaurant, gianmarco's.  {seriously, a 90% like rating on urbanspoon with over 1200 votes.  that's impressive.}  gianmarco's opened a wine bar behind their restaurant that we now love too, possibly even more.  {birthday celebration HERE}  it was a fabulous meal!  we enjoyed some delicious wine & amazing food on the beautiful patio.  perfect meal.

{waiting at the gazebo with our glasses of wine!}

& after all of that fun & food, we were a little tired.  & full.

thank you so much for coming, lisa & dave!!!  visitors are welcome any time in sweet home alabama.

love love,
