Mountain Views


During vacation in North Carolina, the husband found a few hikes for us to do.  The first one was up to a defunct government "fire" watch tower. Lets be honest... it was a moonshine distillery watch tower. You say potato, I say mash liquor.


Looks like something from Lost, doesn't it?


Half way up. 


I swear I'd marry him again tomorrow.


By the time we got to the very top, my legs were shaking like crazy. This thing was HIGH. And lord only knows the last time its stability was checked. No hands was a big deal.


These are the mountains where Last of the Mohicans and The Hunger Games were filmed.  I'm nerd enough to enjoy that tidbit.






Jeff and the in-laws.





Another hike we did was to a waterfall called "Skinny dipping falls". Too bad the water was FREEZING.  I only dipped my fully clothed legs in.  




Oh, what's that? You want more photos of mountains? Lucky you.

Busy- as told by my iPhone


Boy oh boy oh boy, this is been one busy season in my life! Right now I am sitting on the couch doing nothing. So it feels a bit odd to be telling you about how busy I am. So what have I been doing?

1) My sister got married. Holy crap, she was the most gorgeous bride EVER.  I'm not kidding, she was the most beautiful bride I've ever seen in real life. There were lots of parties leading up to the big event that kept me happily busy.
Decorating the trellis the day before the wedding!
My parents were jazzed.

Busted my chin while doing the worm.  Second worm in two weddings.
I've officially retired the move.


2) I went to visit my BFF in Tennessee! It was a quick trip, but we were able to talk a ton, giggle even more, and hang out with her sweet boys, and hilarious husband.


Moonshine?  When in Rome...

3) I've been working.  "Mandatory" overtime rocks. :)  And no, I'm not kidding. I actually kind of like working overtime (read: I like time and a half in my paycheck).


Yeah. I have a stand up desk. I look like a total tool at work.


4) I've been taking pictures of cows.  Ok, so it's not really a thing I'm doing, per say, but it did happen the other day and it felt preeeeeetty note worthy.




5) I've gotten to babysit these sweet boys!

Elias!

Duncan and Whit!

6) I went to visit my alma mater. Most of the glory spots still stand, these five years after I graduated.

My old dorm!
The best pizza ever. I wish I was kidding.

BCM!  Yes, these are all iPhone drive by shots
First place I smooched my husband.

7) And the thing that keeps me the busiest of all is of course loving on this one...




 Good day.
