At the end of June (2018), my youngest two children, Kendyl and CJ, and I drove down to Lynchburg, Virginia to visit their half-sister and my step-daughter, Haley. We always love to see Haley, and now that she has a precious daughter, Riley, we love it even more! It was a rainy drive down, which is sad because the drive is usually such a beautiful one!
We met Haley at one of our favorite eateries, Wasabi. It is kind of a tradition for us to eat there each time we visit. It is a hibachi place and our chef was a ton of fun!
The next day we had brunch at El Jefe, where Riley hammed it up for some pictures.
That night, Sean (Haley’s husband) grilled us some amazing steaks–that was the highlight for CJ!
On Sunday we went to Cracker Barrel for brunch to meet Barbara, the kids’ grandmother. Unfortunately, Great-granddad was not up to making it. He is 94 years old now, so we need to make it a point to drive out to his farm next time we visit. That evening we had dinner at Robin Alexander. The food was amazing and there was a caramel apple martini that was TOO DIE FOR!
Most of our visit was for catching up with Haley and Riley! I had not seen them since right after Riley was born last August, so it was amazing to see how much she had grown and how her little personality had developed!
Fortunately, our drive home was much nicer weather-wise and I was able to get a picture during one of our stops!
