I just love these ladies.  : )

I just got back from a weekend full of laughing, stories, great food, and beach time.  Rejuvenation defined.  A big thanks to my wonderful hubs who held down the fort while I was away.  : )

Birthday Weekend in Asheville, NC

The Biltmore Estate

The Walled Garden

The view from the veranda.

Yummy pizza!  Pomodoro sauce, fresh spinach, fresh basil, artichokes, 

smoked Gouda, and pickled cherry peppers.  So.  so.  good.   

Sing it Sheryl Crow.

Chimney Rock from the bottom.

After the long hike to the top!

...and all the way back down.  : )

Birthday Lunch

Kelly and Leslie (two of my best friends) took me out to lunch for my birthday.  I can never get enough conversation with these two gals.  Such great friends!

....And so are these three.  Sitting in the same order even.  : )  Kate, Ava, and Stella.
