Wrapping Up Spring Break in Pictures

Us on Sunday Night in Greenville After Our Anniversary Dinner
So imagine our surprise when we left our cozy 70-80 degree temperatures in Greenville and found this as we wound around the Mountains from S Carolina to N Carolina to Tennessee.


Yes that is snow....and it continued while we slept Monday night...

So we woke up to this....

And stayed in all day Tuesday because the Accord was NOT going on slippery Mountain roads. But it was okay because our cabin was so cozy! These are pictures of our den and bedroom. We had a gas fireplace, screened porch with hot tub, jacuzzi tub and it was only $100 a night!





Once we got into town on Wednesday, we hit the Pancake Pantry for breakfast. This was a place I had remembered going to as a child with my family on October Mountain trips. Still so good. You can see Brad enjoyed his pancakes and sausage and I loved my pigs in a blanket. We highly recommend this to anyone going to Gatlinburg.

The rest of the day in Gatlinburg we walked up and down the strip. It sure had changed in the fifteen years since I last went with my family in eighth grade. Almost too jampacked with stores for my liking. We ate at Bubba Gump's for a light lunch/dinner. Following that meal, we drove down the Parkway in Pigeon Forge and hit the outlet mall in Sevierville. Very nice and good sales but I only managed to get two graphic tees at Aeropostale....bogo and a pair of exercise capris and a blouse at Gap outlet. My husband got sooooooo much. We spent one last firelit night in the cabin, enjoying the hot tub. Then we hit the road and as we wove around the mountains on our way home, three days since driving in this is what we saw...

Hey Girl! It was good to hear from you! Congrats on your anniversary! Being married is awesome! I see that you work in schools. I taught 1st grade for 5 years, but now that I've had Logan I am going to take some time off. Talk to you soon!
