thankful thursday: daddy-o!


in honor of thankful thursday, i must say i could not be more thankful for everyone who came to see us in birmy!!!   julie byrd, little aveer, dad, & haley!  you all are the best.

it was pretty darn awesome having my dad in town for a few days.  we got to show him our new home & new neighborhood, new favorite restaurants, & a little more of our sweet home alabama.


on saturday, blakey & i took my dad down to our favorite alabama winery, ozan!  we enjoyed a tasting of all their wines while looking out over their gorgeous vineyard.  it was so lovely to sit & chat & catch up with my dad.

{the peach wine was quite delicious!}

{my two guys!}

saturday night, we took my dad out to our favorite restaurant in birmingham - gianmarco's.  we drank some delicious wine & ate even more delicious food.  although i tried to branch out, the veal piccata won me over once again.  it seriously is so so good.


for brunch on sunday, we all enjoyed a meal at veranda's jazz brunch!  dad went all southern & ate the chicken & waffles.  one fabulous southern tradition.



while dad was here, he stayed at a sweet southern bed & breakfast near our house, called cobb lane b&b.




we absolutely loved having dad in town!!  now he is back home campaigning for state senate.  so here is my daughterly plug:  norman friends - vote for jack beller in the oklahoma state senate primary run-off on august 28th!!  do it :)

& i hope you can think of something today for which you are thankful.

love love,
kjp.
