Easter in Knoxville


We went back to Knoxville this year to have Easter Sunday with Grandma and Grandpa. 
Grandma spoiled us with her amazing cooking and hospitality... and always with those Easter baskets filled with the best of the best candy.
Aunt Wendy spoiled us with her fabulous sugar cookies... with all new shapes and decorations for Easter. 


The weather was perfect ... starting to see the many signs of spring


Even Grandpa was smiling...

Moments in life we will cherish for years...

I have pictures!! You must see! We've celebrated Charlie turning 5 (Oh my Lord! His world has changed!) We had our family Christmas time. We've had SNOW! We went skiing. Life keeps happening.

Always once, many times twice per week. I do believe Sam and Charlie have even decided it to be their favorite place to eat (or maybe they just know it makes mama happy!) On Monday, while on our (home) vacation, we decided to take advantage of our glorious East Tennessee treasures up in the Smoky Mountains. Lucky us… there is a Tomato Head in downtown Maryville ~ so we had to visit as we were passing through. At both locations (Market Square and downtown Maryville), we prefer to sit outside. They have their trademark colorful lights hanging at both locations. Our meal always begins with blue chips and hummus. Always. Sam and Charlie gobble up their ...

The Agrestic Family went to their first University of Tennessee Football game today ~ as a family of four ~ The Little Agrestics were quite excited about seeing the inside of the coveted Neyland Stadium for the first time! We had fantastic weather, great seats, a blow out game, and really good kids showering the entire day! I trust that we will meet like this again :) (photos courtesy of my iPhone)
