A Little Sample

We went on vacation with my whole family (minus Jeremy who's in Iraq - we missed you!!) to the mountains of NC in Banner Elk. We stayed in a big house at the top of a mountain, but it wasn't exactly what we were expecting.  Let's just say that it was that was probably really nice  . . . about 30 years ago! I think that the dishwasher was one of the first ones ever made and the couches were older than me, but we still managed to have a lot of fun! We spent the week hanging out, playing games, going shopping, hiking, tubing down the river, visiting Blowing Rock and Tweetsie Railroad, and doing lots and lots of eating! I have a ton of pictures that I have to sort through, but for now here is a little sample of a typical moment with all of us! Warning, it's pretty loud and chaotic . . . but that's pretty normal when we all get together! In addition to all of us "grown-ups," there were 7 little grandchildren all 5 and under! There's always someone crying, someone hyping up the kids, and someone just trying to sleep through all the noise.
