Sunday in Boone

My dad and I both had to work this past Saturday so my parents came up to visit us once he was off work and I was home also. Saturday night we went out to eat and Sunday morning we got up early and took a trip to Boone. William and I have been here for a over a year and we never realized that we are only about an hour from Boone! We did a lot of driving around, taking in all the mountain scenery, and we went to Linville Falls and hiked up to the different overlooks of the waterfall. Here's the view from the highest point:

Here's mom and William sitting on the edge (I must admit that getting that close to the edge made me a little queezy--LOL):

Here's mom and dad at the lowest point (Charleigh was cut out by accident!)


And me and William in the same spot:

We drove along the blue ridge parkway with the windows down and blankets on top of us because the air was actually chilly! Once we got back to Winson it was a different story with all the humidity. We drove through blowing rock, passed tweetsie railroad, and scouted out all the places we would love to take a mini vaccation back to! We came back home, dropped Charleigh off, and went out to a mexican restaraunt. We had such a great time and we always hate it when we have to say goodbye. :( William has his first test as a 2nd year this friday so he is really working hard and I am trying to recover from some sort of sinus infection or cold or something. Hope everyone has a great week!
