Things with which to occupy your time...

I know! I know! It has been too long since we posted anything!! Seriously though, if your last few months have been as crazy as OUR last few months then you: A.) Understand completely and B.) Have our sympathies.

We DO hope that everyone is in good health and good spirits. And we are excited to see everyone in about 13-ish days. :)

We have no huge announcements or changes to make – just wanted to update you on possible happenings for those that find they have spare time on their hands whilst in the Charlotte/Concord Area.

• The Renaissance Festival: http://www.royalfaires.com/carolina/
The last weekend for this happens to fall on the 16th – so those coming in early may want to check it out. You can enjoy jousting, jugglers, swordplay and wordplay. It is a BLAST. Fun for the whole family!
• For the Family : http://charlottecultureguide.com/feature.php?id=6
Most of this is offered a little further south than where most of you are staying but if you have the time – its interesting/fun stuff.
• Movies that are out: http://events.charlotteobserver.com/concord-nc/venues/show/45112-amc-concord-mills-24
This is for the closest theater to where most everyone is staying. I am sure that the selection may change within the next two weeks but this link should tell you all you want to know.
• The Flying Saucer: http://www.beerknurd.com/stores/charlotte
For those 21 years of age or older – this is a good place to hang out, have a beer (from almost anywhere in the world), and eat some pretty decent bar food.
• A Dog Show, (Yes – you read correctly!) Apparently there is a dog show being held the same weekend as the wedding. We would certainly enjoy your company at the wedding but we do understand the undeniable pull of a good canine beauty pageant. :) If you are TRULY interested let me know and I will find more information about it for you.


The things we listed in a previous post (shopping, sporting, and learning) are still all there to enjoy as well – so, if you are interested in any of it and have the extra time, go out and have some more fun!!
