Tanner and I got to take a mini-vacation to the mountains of North Carolina this past weekend because Tanner was a groomsman in his friend's wedding. We got to stay in this amazing lodge that Jake built on their property. Check it out at this website: http://www.vrbo.com/163324 I got to get a little bit of spring while we were there because some early flowers were already blooming! One day a few of us were planning on going hiking in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, but we were running out of time, so we stopped short at a little touristy town called Cherokee. The boys got a little bit excited about the holsters they found in one of the shops.
I got swept off my feet by the river right before we stopped for ice cream.
The next day, Brent, Amy, and I went to The Arboretum ... I'm really not sure how that is spelled. Anyhow, there were lots of things to see there. Here is a picture of Brent and Amy hiking along a little stream. 
And one of me sitting inside a hollow tree I thought was pretty cool. 
And one of one of the butterflies in the butterfly house. 
Meanwhile, the guys spent most of thier day riding dirt bikes around Jake's property.
The wedding was really nice. I liked how Holly used a lot of candles. Of course, she was really busy the whole time we were there, so we only got to meet her for a few minutes, but if the adorable accent has anything to do with it, she is the sweetest girl I have ever met!!! Here's a picture of Tanner with the groom Jake and his brother and best man Josh.
And here is one of us at the reception.
All in all it was great to get away, hang out with old friends, and be reminded of how fun it is to get married... and maybe we'll get to go back next year!
