Pop and Roberta's Visit

Pop and Roberta came to visit this weekend. It was the first time we all met Roberta...finally! They arrived on Thursday afternoon while I was furiously trying to make a super complicated shepard's pie...don't know what got into me...Roberta helped me finish it with her crazy fast potato peeling and mad scientist spice knowledge. I had doubled the recipe which was totally unnecessary I later found out after I realized I made enough for 30! Shannon, Ryan, BB and Babs had to come over to help us make some sort of dent in the extra large pie. On Friday we piled in the car and met BB and Babs uptown for some pizza at Pie town...it was yum as always. Later we went to BB and Babs to put Asty down for a nap. BB stayed home while Aston was napping and Pop, Roberta, Babs and I went to Wing Haven Nursery right down the street in search for a Tea Olive plant for Pop. Guess what, we got the last one! Saturday we hung out until Aston woke up from his morning nap then we were off to the Waxhaw Autumn Festival. We got ourselves to downtown historic Waxhaw quickly to find out that the highlight of the trip was the "choo choo train" whizzing through the center of town. Aston was paralyzed! He said Brrrrm Brrrrm...i guess we can't do "choooo chooo" yet:) Lunch was at trusty old Ilios Noche...Doug served us well...cookies and all. The main event of the day however, was Disney on Ice...see the above post:)

Pop and Roberta left Sunday morning after a Delancy Street Breakfast. So far i haven't found anything they left...Pop always forgets something...I must not be looking hard enough:) Thanks for coming Pop and Roberta!!!
