Alabama Summer 2021: part 4

We got to swim again with more dear friends! I ended up leaving a bit early to take Hallie home for bed, as she was DONE (poor thing, she was wrung out with all of our comings and goings). The older three had an absolute blast playing with Mr. Brent and Mrs. Kristy:



Our dear Zurmuehlens came over for supper early in the week (Katy and Lily bonded over pictures and videos of Katy's cat!), but we visited them at their patisserie at the end of the week!

I've been following along with the whole patisserie-opening process over the past ~2 years, and it was SO EXCITING to visit in person!

They so sweetly let the girls step into the kitchen to see them at work.


It was such a delight to see their dream in action!


The Head Chef himself!

Katy won all of them over. Of course. 


AND, I saw the Rudds! I haven't seen them in forever, and it was so fun to bump into them!

After pastries, we stepped over to visit Laura Kay's classroom:






Getting to see SO MANY friends was absolutely the highlight of our visit! I'm so glad Mom and Dad were able to schedule so many visits, as well as activities, for us while we were there.

ONE more Alabama post to come...

Just another friendly reminder that I'm still playing catch-up. Clearly, it is not currently July... We made another annual trip to Tops...
