Our Little Getaway to NC

This was the sunset the night of the wedding, we went home early to get ready for our 15 hour drive the next day!

Adam's friends from High School.

This is the waterfall Adam climbed!

We stopped at this stream that ran thru the trail and took some pics!

This was the view from the Chapel, I had tears in my eyes when we sat down.

A view from the rehearsal dinner, breathtaking! Look carefully that is the original fireplace of the house that use to exist there.

We pulled off the road to get this sign!

Adam and I were lucky enough to get away this summer for a couple of days to the mountains of North Carolina. The reason was for Adam's high school friend Jill's wedding but to us it was more like a vacation. We decided to drive the long 15 hours to the mountains instead of flying and boy was it interesting. On the way there we decided to split up the drive in to 2 days, which was great!!! I blew Adam out of the water by driving the majority of the way our first day! I really don't know what got into me other than the Lord giving me the willingness to drive. For those of you who don't know me very well I rarely ever drive longer than 2 hours at a time when we are on a road trip. When we moved to Texas I didn't drive at all, my sweet husband did it all!!! So he would say the trip to N.C was my pay back to him. Anyways we arrived in the N.C Friday afternoon around 4pm, quickly showered and changed in our adorable little cottage and we were off to the rehearsal dinner. Little did we know it would take us over an hour to find the place. Let me tell you when we finally got there it was on top of a mountain that over look the Blue Ridge Mountain Range, I mean it was breath taking! We were in awe and were so glad to be there. The groom's family is from France so all weekend long I enjoyed French wine and champaigne, it was great!! :) The next day the wedding was early in the morning and again it was on top of a mountain which was again breathtaking!!! The Lord was definitely showing His Creation to Adam and I all weekend. I think we both really enjoyed being outside. On Saturday after the wedding we went hiking, Adam planned the whole adventure, it ended up being my favorite part. We were driving on the Blue Ridge Parkway which we highly recommend seeing if you can and finally found the trails we were going to Hike. We sprayed some bug spray grabbed some water and we were off. I complained about how fast we were walking, Adam climbed the waterfalls, and we talked the majority of the time about our future dog. It was great! I recommend always making time to get away for while together!
