We went up to Brevard to visit our friend Steven over MLK weekend. We stopped in to the Fish Hatchery before climbing John Rock. It was a cold and icy day, but super refreshing to be outside taking it all in. Owen loved feeding the fish.
Bundled up for the hike!
Weird and beautiful frozen ground
We are at the top of John Rock looking across to Looking Glass Rock.
Looking Glass Falls
We went to the Blue Ridge Parkway hoping to drive a while and enjoy the sights. Once we got to the top, we found out the road was closed due to ice. Instead of turning around, we parked the car and set out for a hike. The Parkway is even more amazing on foot, and a lot easier than trudging up a mountain.
We had a lot of fun playing in the tunnels with our echos.
Owen found a best friend in Clem over the weekend.
More Clem snuggles.
I don't remember what Owen and Nora were up to, but it looks like it was nuthin' but trouble!
A quick trip over to Birmingham!
He's too cool to sit and eat.
These poor kids were bound and determined to get this kite up in the air!
They are all going in opposite directions!
Aunt Darcy to the rescue!
Yay Claire!
And it crashed (or was pulled from the sky by its tail).
Emma is definitely related to Nanny with that dainty pinkie finger sticking out!
A little croquet?
