Girls Weekend, Guys Weekend





This past weekend I was able to go to the Grove Park Inn for a Girls Weekend with Erin, Jessica, and Shelley. While I was living it up relaxing and socializing, Dustin was at home with Graham!
It turned out to be the perfect weekend. The temperature was in the upper 60's everyday. We arrived on Thursday night and went to eat dinner in downtown Asheville. After dinner we put on comfortable clothes and went to look around the hotel. On Friday we slept in, did water aerobics, got some coffee/tea, and then headed to the spa. I cannot describe how WONDERFUL the spa was! We stayed for 8 hours, until they closed. During that time we each got a 50 minute massage, took a dip in all the pools (indoor and outdoor), sat in the hot tubs, and sweated in the saunas. It was even warm enough to lay out by the pool in our bathing suits. We also managed to eat, talk, and squeeze in reading our gossip magazines. On Saturday, we woke up and went to tour the Biltmore House. Before our tour we walked around Biltmore Village and found a cozy little place to eat breakfast. At the Biltmore, we toured the house, walked the grounds, and visited the winery. We decided to stay in downtown Asheville to eat dinner. We ate at the Flying Frog, a place suggested by several people. It's an Indian/German/Mediterranean restaurant. All of the appetizers and entrees were excellent. Upon returning to the Grove Park we put our pj's on and found some rocking chairs where we could sit and talk. The weekend was capped off by brunch on Sunday. We all left feeling full and rested.
From what I hear, Dustin's and Graham's weekend was not as relaxing! The weather was also beautiful in Greenville so the boys spent much of their time outside. They went for walks, kicked some balls, threw some balls, and played in the dirt. They were also well fed, as they ate most of their meals out. On top of chasing Graham all weekend, Dustin also picked up the house and did 3 loads of laundry. Dustin better be careful, I could get used to this lifestyle!!!
