Gigi and Asheville!
Well, this week and weekend were filled with good times! My mom, Gigi, came to visit last Wednesday and Sullivan got even more grandma love! This is such a special month in that both Lee's mom and my mom were able to visit. Sullivan and Gigi enjoyed the clutch Gigi-visit activities: going to the Kmart across our neighborhood, strolling, playing and singing, reading books and snuggling. Lee and me in turn were given the opportunity to get away for a while and check out Asheville, NC. Only about 1 hr and 15 minutes away, it was convenient and easy, yet offered us a wealth of art galleries, colorful people, great cuisine and rolling blue mountain vistas. We stayed in a warm bed and breakfast right next door to Mars Hill College just outside of town and felt rejuvenated by exploring downtown Asheville, catching the Mars Hill college football game, drinking red wine, savoring delicious cheese plates and noodle bowls, walking through a Jewish food festival and even getting to share in mass at the Basilica St. Lawrence. A much needed escape for us...

I enjoyed that slide show from your trip to Asheville. It looks like a nice area and I am glad that you had the chance to see your Mom. May God bless you and your family. Sullivan is growing up nicely thank the Lord. Enjoy your day.
