Jasmine's Shower

We're all looking forward to the arrival of baby Isabella. Sherry Noziglia hosted a great day and it was like the PCF alumnae association meeting: Amy, Erica, Judy, Emily, and of course Jasmine.

Jojo Laszlo, Bob Bob and Nana hit the zoo on a beautiful November Sunday morning. Elephants, orangs, butterflies and lots of walking. This has become a great Sunday morning tradition. We are planning for the winter with trips to museums, the airport and aquarium - so much to do - so little time! Thanksgiving is coming and we're all gearing up but very sad that the Georgia Kearns' can't make it.

Laz and Nana Hit DC

We started at the Washington monument and he really wasn't into it until we hit the WWII memorial with all that water!

















He got closer and closer until he finally got wet.
Then it was on to the Vietnam memorial to feed the ducks the remnants of his pbandj sandwich, which they truly appreciated.

Then it was on to the White House, Occupy DC tent city at Freedom Plaza, catching a show of Jersey Boys at the National Theatre and then home with a smile on his pbandj smeared face for nappy nap (for nana, too :-)).

Kim's Shower

The rains poured down but did not make a dent in the wonderful Hawaian theme for Kim's shower. Here are a few pictures from that great day. Bridesmaid Charity takes notes.

Laz gets a new bike

Laszlo and Nana have been having a great week while Mom and Day are in Ireland. One day Laz woke up and spotted something new in the backyard that the Fairy Godmother(Aunt Jojo) left overnight. It's so cool to have your own personal Fairy Godmother who leave neat stuff in the middle of the night!

Laz took a break to get out of the heat and read a book.

Shout Out to Four Seasons Spa Atlanta

Big K and Little K just before getting gussied up for the wedding. At right is Max and Jo Kearns' "backyard."



After a relaxing day at the Casa de Pauley-Kearns in the North Georgia mountains and celebrating Jenna Prince and Chris Farmer's wedding, Johanna and I headed to Atlanta to meet Jenna Rinehart Rassif. An incredible five hours was spent at the Four Seasons Spa, followed by dinner at the Terrace(Ellis Hotel) and incredible desserts at the Intermezzo Cafe around the corner, where we ran into Miami Dolphins star Brandon Taylor- whom I wouldn't recognize but Jenna is a Dolphins season ticket holder. That spa is a definite repeat!

Jenna and Johanna - lifelong friends. Johanna on the porch at Fox Run - see the mountains reflected in the glass.

We're now seeking recommendations for other spectacular girls weekend retreats!

The Prince and the Farmer Wedding

Here comes the bride...

The bridal procession makes its way down the path and the bridgegroom waits with a smile.

The band and gluten-free cupcakes and, of course, the cake. The groom's cake was a delicious lemony treat as well.

The wind beneath her sails and Jenna says "I do."

Mr. and Mrs. Farmer

The wedding arbor, built by Chris, with help from Jenna and friends.

The day started with the girls getting their hair done with flower girl karolina all decked out but the attention soon turned to Jenna who looked elegant and stole the show throughout the night. The wedding arbor, done by Chris, with help from Jenna and friends, was amazing and from which hung beautiful stained glass by a friend from Ashville.
