Catching Up

I have been wanting to post some of these pictures for a while now, but May was such a whirlwind, and June is following suit... Mid May we took a family vacation to Grandmom's old house in Saluda, NC. It was the first time we tried this, and it ended up being such a lovely trip. There were some very low moments, most of which occurred in the car, but there were many sweet, sweet moments of mountain exploration. Some of the photos...

Wading in the Green River





Playing at the Saluda Park (we did this several times)




Pearson Falls
(We didn't stay here long as Bro really wanted to climb the falls. Look closely at the photo and see how Hubry is pulling him back under the chain!)



Harmon Field Park in Tryon
(We had a picnic and then the kids learned how to skip stones in the creek with Papa)





A Cold Walk around the Saluda House Yard
(Notice the bright blue bathrobe I found in one of the closets and donned for warmth)





A Warmer Walk around the Property






Last, but not least, The Natural Beauty





Cleaning the Porch
(Where Songbird was a cleaning champ)
