Girls Visit

Three of my closest high school friends, Heather, Jenny, and Jen, ventured to my house this week for our annual reunion. I look forward to being together every year and this year I got to play hostess. We went up on the mountain to walk the trails, shopped, went to a movie, ate out, and shared lots of laughter. We had one minor glitch when Jen got sick while she was here, but still made the most of our time together. I am already looking forward to our next reunion...


This is what happens when Florida girls try to decipher a map of mountain trails:)

Chattanooga

This week is the boys spring break from school so we decided to make a short, overnight trip to Chattanooga. We made the most of our two days there and went to the Choo Choo, the Aquarium, Rock City, and Ruby Falls. Tate loved the model train at the Choo Choo and Miller liked the gnomes "hidden" in Rock City. It was a great family trip and just enough time to be away together.

Snowy Morning

We woke up to a beautiful sight this morning as snow had dusted our yard and flakes were still falling. Usually when it snows here it doesn't stick, but this morning it actually did. So, after breakfast we bundled up and ventured outside. The boys wanted to make tracks with the Jeep and Gator which turned out to be a great idea because then they didn't get their socks and shoes wet. We lasted about 10 minutes and then came back inside to the warm heat. We are wimps I suppose! Later when we came out of church the sun was shining brightly and all the snow had melted. I am glad we enjoyed it while it lasted!
