Holritz Weekend!

Last Thursday, we met Nathan and Amber at Tony’s Pasta for dinner and talked and laughed while Rich did funny modeling poses and then we walked around a bit afterwards…

The Smiths and the Holritzs

Then, on Friday evening and Saturday morning, Rich and I went to our first marriage conference! It was called “Laugh Your Way to a Better Marriage,” and it was awesome! The speaker, Mark Gungor, was HILARIOUS, but it was still so meaningful because he did such a good job of sharing truth and relevant insights for marriage God’s way. We highly recommend going if you get a chance. We had an incredible experience!

Here we are in front of the sign…

Laugh Your Way to a Better Marriage

Saturday we got to babysit Austen and Addison while Nathan and Amber shot a wedding. We had a blast, and took the kids to dinner at Logan’s, where we took these pics…

Then on Sunday we got to go to a recepion at Greyfriars for Matt Dunmore, an incredibly talented photographer here in Chattanooga. Rich and I love checking out his blog and have been emailing back and forth for a while, so we really enjoyed meeting him and his wife! Here we are with Matt and the Holritz’s!

Afterwards we got to hang out with the Holritz’s again and walked all over downtown Chattanooga. It was a gorgeous evening, and we had a blast. We stopped by Coldstone for some ice cream and Rich got a ghostlike picture of Nathan and Austen…

    Please do! As always, the pictures are MUCH larger on our flickr site. Just click on “All Sizes” above the pics.

    We had an amazing time (as usual) with you guys. I love the last two pics with Amber and Heather and I also love the “ghost” one of you and Austen. Totally cool shot.
