Ode to Pete's
Today marked the first "official" day of our vacation (in Knoxville), so we kicked it off by having breakfast at one of our favorite little gems here in town, Pete's. Pete's is a diner / coffee shop in the heart of downtown Knoxville. Now, if you know me well you enough, you may know that "diner" doesn't typically live high on my list of favorite hotspots - however, Pete's found its way into my heart two-years ago. . . and there, it will forever live. During the long, dark months when Richie was recovering from his accident and surgeries, we had a magical Friday morning family breakfast at Pete's every week, typically followed by a visit to the fountains in Market Square. This time was the highlight of every week for Richie, and truly served as a precious reprieve for our whole family from all the stress that was going on at our house. (photo courtesy of Mike C.
