Life is fully on! I haven't had a chance to take a moment to write. Not that there hasn't been fun or not so fun things going on, just priorities have been elsewhere. Here is a recap on what we have been up to:
March 18th weekend: we took a real break and went up to Erik's work friend's cabin, Matt. BOY, was it gorgeous! So Scandinavian! He did this place right! We had 2 beautiful days and took full advantage. We went to Grandfather Mountain one day and then to the upper and lower Linville Falls. We ate lunch at a cute Ma and Pa resturant that covers 3 counties! .
