This weekend Doug and I made the 3.5hr drive to Asheville. The drive was beautiful, I thoroughly enjoyed the mountains covered in colorful trees - but I forgot to take pictures en route! While there, we celebrated Jenny's (Doug's cousin) marriage.

The reception was in a barn, reminiscent of the Schoharie pumpkin patch, beautifully decorated with lights. I just wish it had been 10 degrees warmer!
Afterward, they served a nice dinner - my favorite part was the settings! Each person had a unique goblet, and personalized place settings. So classy.
While in Asheville we stayed with Doug's Grandma Christie and spent a lot of time with her, Uncle John, Aunt Heather & Uncle Grant & family, cousin Natalie & family, and cousin Susannah & family. (We don't call them "cousin Natalie", or "Uncle John", those are just there so you can figure our the relations haha.) Heather fed everyone snacks, lunch (
zuppa toscana from olive garden!!) and dessert (apple and pumpkin pies!!). We also went to a nearby park where the
boys men, couldn't help showing off:

| Doug - he really did get all the way up, haha, I just had bad timing. |

Needless to say, we had a delightful time. Thanks especially to Heather for the food, and Grandma Christie for housing and feeding us! We
really look forward to Thanksgiving :).

In a phone conversation with Granny Christie I told her how much I liked hanging out with you Saturday- and she said that you are just a genuinely nice person- and she likes you very much, too!
