So after having a few days to calm down from Dewey, Ben and I were able to get in a few workouts, and I was able to squeeze in a work trip to Alabama before our fun family weekend in Atlanta! On Friday night, Ben's best friend (and Tyler's Godfather) Ryan came to town to visit.
We had a great backyard bbq with Ryan, Amanda, Ben and I. Tyler was down by 8 and the weather was great, so we were able to hang out on the deck most of the night and just enjoy each other's company! Good times!
Saturday we met up with Ryan and Amanda and Ryan's brother for some bowling. Tyler had never been bowling before (obviously) and he LOVED the bowling balls. He also loved getting tossed in the air by his Uncle Ryan!
Sunday I had Book club with some of my favorite ladies and then we hosted Andy, Angela, Steph and Pat at our house for another cookout.
What a fun weekend here in "the ATL"!!!
The next week I was in a training for work most of the week, but our evenings were spent getting ready for the next week's travel!
Friday, Ben, Tyler and I headed up to Chapel Hill for Jill and Josh's wedding weekend!
Friday night we stayed with our friends Chris and Toni and met up with Erin, Monica and Christina for dinner at R&R Grill. We were thrilled to find out that Chris and Toni are expecting a baby early next year!!!
Saturday morning Ben and I were able to get a tour of the NC Basketball Museum during Tyler's morning nap. Toni and Chris offered to babysit, so Ben and I headed to the Dean Dome! We were both like kids in a candy store! The museum is pretty amazing. All of the National Championship Trophies, various rings, and player paraphernalia is all at your fingertips! I, of course, had to have my picture taken with my boyfriend, and Tyler's namesake, Tyler Hansborough!
After the museum, we headed up to Johanna's (my BFF and Tyler's godmother) house. Johanna and Steve were keeping Tyler for the night, and they had a blast with him! Johanna did such a great job taking care of Little Tman! She borrowed high chairs and exersaucers from various friends so she was well prepared. I can't thank her enough for taking such good care of him!
We fed and played with Tyler and said our goodbye's then headed to Ham's on Franklin St. to meet up with the wedding crew to watch the first game of the World Cup!
After a few beers we headed back to our hotel to get ready for the wedding.
The wedding was held at the Angus Barn in Durham. It was absolutely beautiful and the weather held out!
The food was excellent, the band rocked out, and the drinks were plentiful! Everything you could ask for in a kick ass wedding!
After the wedding, Ben and I met up with my good friends Chesare and Bobby at East End Martini Bar on Franklin St., then we headed over to La Rez to meet the rest of the wedding party.
We partied until the wee hours of the morning and had a great time!
Sunday, Ben and I picked up Tyler from Johanna's and headed to Spartanburg. Because I had a work meeting in Chapel Hill later that week, and Ben wanted to work in the BOA Greenville office, we decided to spend the week with my parents.
We arrived in Spartanburg exhausted after an amazing weekend!!!
