Vacations are the best! I used to like them, now I LOVE them! We went this year to Big Canoe, Ga. It was awesome. Big Canoe is a planned community spread out over like 4 or 5 mountains in North Georgia. We left on Friday and drove halfway and stayed overnight in Warner Robins, Ga. I wish we could have gone the whole way but I get carsick on long drives so Michael had to drive. He worked all night Thursday and was really tired. Saturday we finished the drive up. My parents, Shelley and Raelee drove up on Friday and stayed until Tuesday. Sunday we drove to Helen and went to the antique mall and mill, then drove up to NC to visit with the Voyles (I LOVE THEM!), and then drove over to Dillard (back in Ga) and ate at the Dillard House. I highly recommend the Dillard house! It is SOOOOOOOO good! Then finally we drove back to Big Canoe. On Monday Michael, my dad, Makenna and myself went hiking. It was a 4-5 mile hike and was pretty dangerous because the trail was not very wide and was quite steep at times, but was worth it once we got to the waterfall! It was beautiful. My family left on Tuesday so we didn't do much that day. I think we may have driven into Jasper to go shopping. Wednesday we drove around the mountains and found some spectacular views. Thursday we just relaxed, then Michael and Makenna drove to Jasper and brought back food. It wasn't a very romantic Valentines day, but it was just what we needed. Friday we left for home. We stopped at the Tanger Outlet mall and spent a ton of money (Everything was BOGO in the Carter's store... Makenna now has clothes for the rest of the year). Then we drove to Warner Robins where we stayed the night again... We drove back into Macon to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. Saturday we finally got home. It was so much fun being with Makenna non-stop but it also makes me sad. Now I realize just how much she changes on a day-to-day basis and how much I miss while I'm at work 50+ hours a week... We've got to work on me being home more... I miss my kid!
Anyways... enjoy the pics! They are not in order but oh well!
