Thanksgiving in the mountains

December 4, 2019

On Wednesday before Thanksgiving we made the drive up to Highlands, NC for another fantastic Thanksgiving in the mountains! The weather was chilly and windy but not too terribly cold and not raining so we made the most of it!

On Thanksgiving morning we got up and hiked our favorite – Whiteside! We were out there by about 9:30 so we could get a parking place at the base of the mountain and sure were happy to get a good hike in and enjoy the beautiful views!

Halloween!

November 5, 2019

By the time the boys got home from school on Halloween the rain had stopped and the excitement was high! While it wasn’t raining, it was still freezing cold with temps only in the 40s. That didn’t bother my crew too much though. With a few costume adjustments we were ready to go hang with the neighbors by 3:30!

Boba Fett, Olympic Gymnast, and Ronald Acuna Jr!

We eventually made our way down to the big neighborhood party, trick or treating along the way. The party was fun and complete with pony rides this year!

Maxwell chose to go over to another neighborhood to hang with some of his buddies and while I really missed having him with us, I’m glad he was having fun with his friends…and I was able to call him using our new flip phone!

By 7:30 we were trick or treated out, wind burned from the cold wind, and happy to be home! Robert picked up Maxwell and we were all back together to check out the giant candy haul!

Halloween Day

November 4, 2019

I was up bright and early to hit the gym in costume on Halloween morning! My friends from the 5:15am crew and I all decided to go as Team USA! It was a little tricky to find adult size leotards but Amazon pulled through!

Samantha followed in my footsteps for her costume for the school parade. Look at this Olympic Gymnast…

Have you ever seen anything cuter? I give her a perfect 10!! The parade at school was cute…and also sadly, inside. The weather during the day on Halloween was terrible – so cold and really rainy. Samantha still had fun seeing all of her classmates dressed up and having a party at school though.

Thankfully the rain stopped around 2:00 and, while it didn’t warm up, it did make for a dry night! Pics to come!
