Take a hike

Literally.  I did.  And I forgot how much I love hiking and being outdoors.  If you ever have the opportunity to go to Black Mountain, NC, or Montreat, NC, GO!!!  It is gorgeous and so worth the short drive. 

So, go take a hike.  Literally.  I did. 

My week as seen through the camera in my phone

I went for a little visit to Arkansas and this little guy was a good travel partner.

While checking on pinterest, I found this gem.  Who can't relate to this one? Totally not relevant to the Arkansas trip, but I just couldn't pass this up.

As I arrived at my parents, this was the gorgeous sunset from their backyard.  I love this picture!

I went for a run the next morning and who doesn't love 90's rap?? And especially The Fresh Prince!  Love this song!  I had trouble running and dancing at the same time.

I went to work with my brother a few days.  Man, how I missed hanging out with him!  He grows some beautiful rice! I guess you have to you have to know a little about rice farming to appreciate beautiful rice!

My brother farms without a shirt and in shorts and boots.  It's quite a sight to see! He would kill me for taking this picture.

Got to visit with my sweet grandparents.  Geez, not only do I look just like my mother, but my grandmother too!  I never realized it until this picture!  Look at those cheek bones, dimples and noses! 

On my final night we celebrated my grandparent's 58th wedding anniversary!  They have set the bar extremely high and I hope I am able to follow their example.

Enjoy!
