CCRT 2010: Louisville, KY

We're back!!! For our faithful followers that have been wondering where we have been for the past month we hope that these next few posts catch you up and give you a little peek at what has been going on recently. We apologize for the delay in posts but with two moves, lots of packing and unpacking, a week of wedding planing in Florida, nannying for Trent and Eli, trying to replace Jeremy's stolen computer, and a grueling 25 hour drive to Massachusetts, we have been busy. All in all it has been an exciting month filled with exciting changes, challenges and fun new adventures.

Let's start with where we left off---Kentucky! Growing up I (Laura) spent a few weeks every summer in Kentucky staying with my cousins and grandparents. As everyone knows, I have tons of great memories from Kentucky and a lot of my childhood stories contain my two cousins, Brandon and Davis. As we headed back I was so excited for Jeremy to see the place he had heard so much about in all my stories. We pulled in to Gangi and Pa's house and were greeted by a home cooked dinner and Gangi's famous caramel cake. My mom had also flown in for the weekend to share in the festivities. The few days we spent in KY were fun and relaxing. We went to Uncle Don and Aunt Helen's for a bbq and pool party. While we were there we were entertained by my super talented cousin, Donald, as he played the piano while we all sang along. He works at Howl at the Moon, a dueling piano bar, as one of the piano players. He is amazing and it was so great to hear him play. We also got to take a tour of Helen's art studio. She works out of her home creating beautiful pieces. Check out her work here!

The rest of our time was spent hanging out with Gangi and Paw and visiting with the rest of the family. We had a great time and were sad to see it end! Thanks to everyone for such a fun week, but most importantly to Gangi and Paw for letting us stay with them! We had SO much fun!
