Vacation Day 2: Meet the Hatchers

We made it to Mary's around 2:30 PM. What a wonderful day. Chava acted as if she knew them her whole life. We hung out with the kids and caught up with each other as much as the kids would allow. I could have sat silently in a room with her and been happy. She is the same beautiful, unjaded Mary. Just sweet, sincere Mary. For dinner we went to Market Square in downtown Knoxville. Fabulous...well...market square with restaurants and shops. In the center was a splash park where the kids hung out before dinner. We had dinner on the outdoor patio of Tomato Head. Great food and the girls were well behaved. That was definitely one of the most enjoyable restaurant experiences I've had in awhile. Ari was sleeping by 9 and Chava by 10:15. Not too shabby. They are going with the flow and our vacation has finally taken a refreshing turn.

This is the way to Mary's house...

Leaving Lexington and our way to Knoxville to stay with the Hatcher Family. It's been so long since I've seen Mary. Honestly, I can't even remember the last time I've seen her. We have chatted on and off over the years, and thanks to Facebook we have been able glimpse into each other's world. I really had no idea what the future held for "crazy" and "little one" back in the day...I'm just so thankful we are happy and healthy...with families!! So...with all these happy thoughts the next 3 hours should be smooth sailing. And, we are off to a good start because Chava fell asleep within 15 minutes. Yay! Here we come Mary, Richie, Sam, and Charlie!
