I called my mom in tears on Friday.
Emotionally and mentally just broken.
A few minutes later my mom called and said, "let's go to the Smokies for the weekend, let's just get out of town." I left work around 3 for some other reasons, hustled home, packed the car and away we went.
We had one of the best weekends ever. Just the three of us, like it usually is anyway. Just spending time together and making memories.
We drove to Cherokee, an indian reservation, toured the sights, ate yummy food and finished up the weekend with some outlet shopping. A great little getaway.
the swinging bridge where i always used to visit with my grandpa.
I saw this guy and HAD to take my picture.
Didn't have a single tooth. Not one.
reservation shopping.
after visiting and paying my $5, I realize that I feel really sorry for these animals.
smoker's dream. casino, baby.
Had I known that this yummy deliciousness was only 3.5 hours away, I would have made the trip more often. : )

Hi Brenda and Doug! Miss you and your family so much, Brooke. Looks like you had a great time.
Regarding the Paula food, I hate how some retaurants give you those tiny little portions. I mean, c'mon, Paula! You're not fooling anyone with your new lifestyle.
