Non Scenery Pictures from our Trip
Mike and I walking down a hillside acting silly...my oldest was snapping shots of us!


A fun close up of me and my girls.



We have been busy unpacking, washing clothes, and getting our home back in order. I think the little ones are getting rested and back on their normal routine. It takes a few days for all that to get back to normal. As soon as we get our Biltmore pics off of our laptop and on a disk, I will recap our trip.

One of the neatest things about our trip was seeing lots of family! There are 7 siblings in my moms family...they were all there with their families. That was 19 grandchildren and 43 great grand children. We all had beautiful log houses rented in a gated community. It was beautiful just being there and lots of fun catching up with family members. My children really enjoyed playing with their second cousins. Our big family dinners were so much fun!

Lovely.

So glad to hear you had such a wonderful time in the Smokies. I still hold a tender spot in my heart for that place I called home for more than six years.

Can't wait to see your Biltmore shots. I adored our time there and looked at scrapbook pages recently from our own visit a few years ago.

Hi Kim~ Your trip sounds so fun! What a blessing to have extended family and time together. I have a silly question for you...I love your top in these photos. It is cute and modest! I have a hard time finding summer things that are not low cut. Would you mind sharing where you found it? Thanks. ;)
