A Lazy Sunday Afternoon

Charlie and I went to Lake Junaluska on Sunday to do a little reading and relaxing by the lake. As you can see in this picture I would prefer to sleep. It was actually quite a cozy spot.
But I did bring the perfect Sudoku book for the occasion.

Much Needed Vacation!

For Charlie's 24th birthday I planned a getaway for us to The Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam and Las Vegas. This will be a series of posts so that I can use more of my pictures. There are so many to share. 

Anyway this is from when we first arrived in Las Vegas. After an almost painfully tight flight I was able to sit for a minute and regroup with much more personal space. 

I pulled out my camera and snapped the first photo of the trip: Charlie talking to the rental car people. Please note that he turned 24... not 25. 25 is the magical rent-a-car age and until you are 25+ they find you a risk and charge you more. But we knew that so no surprises.

Then it was time to turn the camera on myself. I'm cute I know. I was also quite tired since our flight did not leave Atlanta until after 9pm.
Midnight breakfast once we made it to our hotel. I think it was 2am local time before we were settled in (which would make it almost 5am at home)
More to come...

We met our new niece!!!

Mary Anna. What a beautiful baby girl!

Bergen Parking.....

Does this look familiar to anyone? Some other people I know also park at the VERY BACK of the parking lot! This was the perfect spot for Charlie because it was by a curb that he could hop up on so no one would ding his truck...

Love you babe!

Girls weekend!

Charlie's mom put on a wonderful girls weekend for all her girls. We went to a conference with Angela Thomas, which was incredible. Then had a fun girls night. Everyone brought a snack that began with their middle initial. Mine is "E" so I brought Popcorn and "E"m & "E"m's for our movie.

Anna and I came together and stopped at California Dreaming for dinner. we had the most amazing Spinach nachos for an appetizer... yummy!

Anna, checking out the menu

Me... Smile!

When we made it to Betty and Kyle's house we found Betty waiting outside for us. ---Thanks Betty! ; )   --- and we found Kyle in the sweetest shirt... it fit perfect with the start of our girls weekend!
It says "I love my wife" How nice right? Well apparently he doesn't leave the house when he wears it... well at least he wears it! Thanks Kyle for the girl spirit at the beginning of the weekend!

Saturday morning we stopped by the Flower's house to pick up Elizabeth (see the beautiful "baby" tummy?!) I had to snap his picture for Charlie. Notice Kyle's Socks and shorts... Charlie always finds this funny!

Thanks for a fun weekend Betty!

The perfect amount of milk in the morning.
