Nashville Part 2

{Saturday}
After breakfast and Lucy's morning nap, we were off to Arrington Vineyard. We did a wine tasting and then had a picnic lunch. And Lucy loved herself some HUMMUS! It was so funny. She just couldn't get enough. Bobby, Katie's boyfriend, asked can she say "more?" We quickly responded "no" but explained that she does sign for more. That very second she reached for the hummus and said "MO!" "MO!" HAHA! We all laughed and Lucy smiled with a mouth full of hummus :)

Lucy fell in love with Bobby in seconds. She still prefers men.......uh-oh!

Bobby was great with Lucy and let her walk all over the vineyard. She enjoyed the freedom and the warm sunshine.

Oh yeah....a cold beer too!

(I'm only kidding!)

It was a beautiful, sunny day but very WINDY!

Check out that hair! Lucy loved the wind...

We tried to capture a quick family picture...

We had about 2 seconds to try this. Because Lucy decided she'd rather walk with Bobby than pose for a picture.

(Wonder who gets her way now-a-days?)

Then Lucy discovered the steps...

...and all her dreams came true!

Katie walked up and down the stairs with Lucy again and again and again!

"Wait a minute Katie, I thought we were climbing the stairs? Not posing for a picture?"

"NO PICTURES! Can't you see I'm busy here?"

We had a great day together.

{Sunday}
We had a nice, quiet morning at the Marotta's while we packed to fly home.

Lucy had to say good-bye to her best friend, Jack-Jack!

Said good-bye to Katie. We miss her already and appreciate all the fun she showed us!

And good-bye to the Marotta family. They were the BEST hosts and welcomed us into their family with open arms.

Thank you to Katie and the Marotta's for everything. We had a great vacation and loved getting to visit with everyone! We hope to plan another visit soon when we can enjoy your beautiful pool!

That looks like such a fun trip, I still remember how fun Katie is!! Jon and I took her and another friend of yours out one night (I think possibly after rehearsal dinner) prior to your wedding and she was a sweetheart:)

Great pictures...and yes, it is now that Lucy learns how to manipulate her parents...just squish your face up and let a few tears out...Voilà you have them in your control. Katie is a doll! Love the vacation in spite of the fact you missed James Tayolor. :)
