Dance Like You Own the Place

As I mentioned before, some of our favorite friends just opened up a pizza place downtown.  Johnny and Hope have a new habit of skipping breakfast and grabbing pizza right when they open at 11.  I'm trying to be a responsible mother and remind them that maaaaaaaybe eating pizza 4 or 5 times a week isn't the healthiest thing in the world, but I know everyone's just excited about The Brick and I think it will end up taking care of itself.  I mean, it's not everyday that your friends open a pizza joint and it just happens to be some of the tastiest pie you've ever eaten.  Eventually we'll be back to eating pizza once or twice a week.  Eventually.  ;)



Favorite things:
*The spinach pizza is the yummiest I've ever eaten.  Seriously.
*The beer mugs are frosty.  FROSTY.  It's the best.
*Fresh garlic knots.  Heaven.
*Music picks.  See photo above.

As you can probably tell, the Sheltons are very enthusiastic about food.  Sometimes I wonder what our friends must think of us when we get lost in the downward spiral of food talk.  I'm pretty sure Johnny could talk about food for an entire night if someone was there to listen.  No joke.  :)

Also, as you can see from the photos of Poe, she's an entertainer.  This night she was insistent on dancing for ANYONE in the place who would watch.  This kid does not know a stranger.  So full of spunk!

We have a busy weekend ahead of us, so time for me to wrap up all the work things I can!  Happy Thursday, friends!  xo.

Pizza Night At The Farm

Last week we made it out to Millsap Farm for pizza night.  Every week they put on an event where they use fresh ingredients from their farm to make wood-fired pizzas in their big ovens (pictured above).  I expected to like it (because look at these pizzas on their site), but I was surprised at just HOW MUCH I loved it.  There were kids playing everywhere, there was live music in the background, and there were even teeny tiny little kittens (!) you could pet.  A bunch of our friends met us out there and I was completely charmed by it all.  I can't wait to make it back out there for another pizza night!  So fun!

Have you discovered anything special in your area lately?  I love finding new ways to love my town more.  xo.

Brunch Date

There isn't a lot better than having brunch out as a family.  We try to do this at least once a week.  It is important to try every single breakfast place in town.  Right??  I judge a town by the breakfast options.  :)

Exploring Our Town: Taylor's

There are very important questions you ask when moving to a new town... questions like, "Who has the best burger??"  This little mom & pop joint has been recommended to us many times by different friends, but they keep odd (for us) hours.  We FINALLY made it in this week and will definitely be going back.  Hope's face in the first picture says it all.  Oh... and Poesy's face tells you exactly what she wanted (and kept chanting over and over and over): "I need a ball."  She doesn't understand gum balls quite yet.
