Spring Break in the Mountains

For spring break this year, we packed up the family & the dogs and headed to the mountains in NC for a getaway together. We rented a small cabin in the woods, enjoyed some indoor rainy day activities, went for a beautiful hike and even made our first college tour happen so Abby could see the Appalachian State UNC campus! It was a wonderful week spent making fun memories together!








We had a bit of rain while in the mountains, but we really enjoyed the cabin time spent together. Abby enjoyed cooking one of her weekly Hello Fresh meals for us...


Luna was a perfect fireside reading companion... 


Abby and I watched the Live Bachelor season finale together...


Brian and Emily played A LOT of video games together...


We enjoyed a few family games together (one of our favorite activities lately)...




We finally got to watch the Taylor Swift Era's Tour... What could be better than a cozy fireside private concert?!?!?!




Ben enjoyed being out in nature (even in the rain) and took it upon himself to hang outside and sharpen some sticks on a rock... He was pretty excited about it, so Brian took him to the General Store to buy his first Swiss Army knife & taught him how to do some real whittling! We now have a big pile of sharp sticks in our garage! 😂







We did end up having a day that was good for a hike, so we headed to the popular "Glen Burney Trail" to check out their trails & waterfalls...







Ozzy was all on board to check out the river, but Luna preferred watching from dry land...


The hike got a bit hilly for me, so I decided to hang back and enjoy the scenes from the top of the waterfall, while Brian took the kids and dogs to see it from the bottom! I ended up taking a picture of Abby just as she was taking a picture of me!




What a wonderful week we could spend together making memories! 💗
