I cannot start the with our joyous trip to The Ville without briefly mentioning the chaos that was the morning of the flight and Draper inviting giardia into his body. Because of Drapey's issue, we needed to take him to the vet. The earliest they could see him was noon... 1 hour before we were supposed to leave for the airport. Also his vet is nearly 20 minutes away. Somehow, we got back in time, however the vet told us he could no longer stay at his fancy pet resort. Something out not wanting to get every dog in the Hanover area contaminated with giardia. Luckily! Our dear friend saved the day and offered to watch and care for our sick Drapey all weekend! Thanks Jordan!!
Moving on! We made it to our gate in the knick of time! Good ole Southwest took us directly to the Ville (a bit of a bouncy landing...but we made it.) There, the beautiful Sandy Hanlin picked us up and took us to a Hanlin happy hour with shrimp cocktail, crackers and hummus, and who could forget the delicious pimento cheese spread! To keep the night flowing the Philster let us borrow the mini cooper for old time sake! with the mini cooper we motored right on down to our staple spot, Highlands Taproom.
[Editor's note: unfortunately the pace here was a little unsustainable and we never got around to cleverly detailing our trip back to Louisville. So instead... a lazy photo racap... Enjoy!]
Right after we arrived, pit stop at Casa Hanlin for some apps and cocktails! Off to a pretty good start
Hannah and Leslie back together again!

Pretty spectacular lyrical duet prowess displayed by Bryson and Sarah Walker!
Zack killed. I have this performance on my iPhone on repeat

As you can see, Sandy outdid herself with the "continental breakfast." I'd highly recommend this B&B
Meg and Ben have a new dog! Don't tell them I'm thinking about stealing it
Dad still hasn't replaced my straight line grass cutting ability as you can see. But its hard to replace a legend...
Dad's new truck
Headed to Ruth's Chris to celebrate Emily's (Crabicurious.com's toughest critic) running of the marathon! What an accomplishment!! Oh it was just a mini marathon? That's still impressive! Oh she just walked it? That's still something!
Oh what a happy coincidence, an opportunity to snap some photos on the balcony of the restaurant
Long exposure practice
Philip being class clown!
The next day we met out at Casa Rixman which meant ball. But the best shots may have come from Bryson... on the camera!.... see what I did there?
Yaboy you better not hit that.
I wonder if this went in.
Epic H.O.R.S.E. comeback by me, right Ben? (Ben was mad at the house rules and didn't speak to me really the rest of the day but I didn't make the rules I just took advantage of them to cement the greatest comeback of all time).
Nice shot by Leslie here!
Ben and Meg!
I got a picture of Meg Smiling!
Is this a) a fresh healthy green power smoothie or b) a blended Mojito?
