Our 2nd Anniversary Trip

It's hard to believe that Nick and I celebrated two years this past week (July 21-25) in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge,TN.

We had a great time being together without the pressures of cleaning the house, work, or the internet. We stayed with a neighbors (Ashley Mullen) mom, who lives in Gatlinburg. What a treat that was, not only did it save us from all the hotel taxes, but since she works at a hotel, she has several perks around the area. We were able to go to Ouber Gatlinburg, for free and go to Ripley's Aquarium for half price.

We went shopping in Pigeon Forge (twice), you know me I love the outlets! We both ended up with some great buys! We visited the Apple Barn, with their yummy apple fritters! Visited the Christmas store also in Pigeon Forge.

We walked the strip mulitple times in Gatlinburg, Nick had found these shoes at a places called Jonathan's...I kept putting it off and by the time I gave in, his size was gone! We played mini-golf (Nick's fav. thing to do) and I got my "Back in Time" picture.

I got a hole in one! WOOOHOOOO!

One of our neighbors suggested we visit the River Rat, to tub for the day! Nick wanted to wait for a little later in the day, so we only got to go down once, but what an experience. Nick flipped out backwards (my fault), I ended up falling out trying to get to Nick... I went down the "rapids" on my side.

You know how much I love pictures, so I took tons!
Especially our trip to the Aquarium and to Cades Cove one of our favorite places to just be.

Time in Georgia...

While I find myself back in North Carolina my heart is still in Georgia. My sweet time at home was so precious. I was able to spend time with families that mean so much to my heart, spend sweet time with mom, go for a fun ride with my dad on the motorcycle and to a baseball game, take the boat out with my brother, sister-in-law and nephew Lucas. Lucas loves to jump in...get out and jump back in! We also had the privilage to attend Erik and Jennifer's wedding on Saturday! What a beautiful unity of two hearts brought together by GOD. Nick claims that he helped bring them together through the ministry of AS ONE, but we all know that God is the one who brought them together!
