December...

It has been such a crazy month for us. Baby Lane isn't even here yet and it seems like I have no time to do anything! Just wait until next year!
Let me go back December 19th, Jared and I went to Litton's to eat with my mom, dad and Adam before our dermatologist appointment in West Knoxville. Litton's is Jared's new favorite place to eat and I believe it has become mine too!
So, we head off to the dermatologist. I had a cyst on my arm that had grown 2 mm. since July so she wanted to take that off because of my past history with bad moles and my dad's history with cancer. Turns out mine was just scar tissue, could have been from a bug bite, an ingrown/infected hair follicle or anything crazy like that. I am sure no one eles's body would produce a scar from something like that - but leave it to me! Jared on the other hand - he would have some bumps come up on his head, he would loose all hair in that area, it would be sore and about 4 months later that hair would grow back and the little spot would move to another location. WEIRD She took a biopsy of one spot and sent it off. (so that leaves Jared and I both with stitches) His diagnosis was a mild case of Dissective Cellulousis - I have no idea how to spell it or what it really means. All I know it is treatable, and we go back in about 2 weeks to get treatment. We are just thankful it wasn't anything more serious.
Now on to the good part... Jared planned for a surprise weekend away for me! We left the Dr. and headed to Abingdon, Virginia to stay at the Martha Washington Inn. It was beautiful and everyone should experience it at least once! The next morning, we went to breakfast at the Inn and then to our couples massage appointments! It was wonderful and I could have laid there forever. We went and walked through Abingdon and stopped at Pop Ellis' Soda Shop for lunch. Awesome food (Obama ate there on his campaign trail and they had pictures of him everywhere) Besides that, it was great :)
We then went back to the Inn and I took a nap until it was time to go to dinner at the Inn and then to the Barter Theatre for "Another Night Before Christmas" it was a wonderful play and kept us laughing the entire time. I highly suggest visiting the Barter Theatre sometime! You won't believe it but... I did not take one single picture the entire weekend! I am horrible!
