Quick, spur of the moment, Highland's, NC trip this Labor Day weekend






We had to drop by my favorite decorating store... The Summer House... and I found something I like...


                     The girls said "Hello" to their old friend at The Summer House




                                               We grabbed some lunch at our favorite spot.


                                                       The girls love the Christmas Shop


                                                              ...And the Toy Store


                                                We treated ourselves to some frozen yogurt


We got the girls a Spirograph... remember those???




It happened to be Emma's 8th Birthday when we arrived. We are celebrating it next week, but we let her open one of her gifts when we got there. It was an air-guitar. It's so cool! The different notes are buttons and the strings are lasers. You have to strum the lasers while pushing different notes and it plays different cords.


      Of coarse the trip wouldn't be complete without swimming in the hotel's indoor pool/jacuzzi






                                                        The girls fed the horses apples





The scenery is so beautiful in Highlands! While we were there, the temp was in the low to mid 70's! We were going to go hiking, but after we got the parking pass and were heading to park near the trail, a black bear came out of the woods and just stared at us in our car. So we decided we'd just go out to lunch rather than being his lunch!!!
