Trip to Gatlinburg

For pastor appreciation month (back in October) a couple in our church gave us a weekend in Gatlinburg using their time-share.  SO sweet!!  We set the date for the trip in late January and have been looking forward to it ever since.  Mom kept the kids for us that weekend and we sooooo appreciated it!  

They had some fun cousin time!  I loved getting pictures of them while we were away.  


Happy birthday to our Ressie Roo, we love you!!!  


Uncle Stanley and Alisha came into town that weekend too to do some wedding planning and the girls loved getting to spend time with them!  Emily came home soooo excited because she got to see a picture of Alisha's wedding dress!  


I loved this picture that Mimi took of our girls! All four of them crossed their legs...sweet things! 


Our friends Rhett and Shannon (Shannon's parents were the couple that gave us the weekend) and Toby and Mary Pat went on the trip to Gatlinburg with us and we had so much fun!   

We played lots of games until late at night, enjoyed eating at great restaurants (kid-free), had fun walking around Gatlinburg for hours on Friday, slept late (late for me anyway), but my favorite part of the weekend was just sitting around talking (which we did a lot of).  


Bert got in a fountain and stood on the ice.  Yikes!  I was not in support of this decision, but thankfully he didn't fall through.  


I loved getting to spend quality time with this guy too!  So fun!  


Mary Pat and Toby have Haley (6), Gabe (almost 4), and are pregnant with their 3rd (due in April)

Rhett and Shannon have Hudson (6), Katelyn (3) and Rachel (1)

Our kids have so much fun together and get to see each other many times through out the week when we are all at church.  


We  had such a great weekend and were so thankful for the trip!! 

Thankful for these friends that we get to do life with!  What a blessing!
