Fall Break

The girls were out of school Thursday and Friday for a mini fall break, so we loaded up the Tahoe and headed for a weekend in Gatlinburg.


Husband's parents have been doing the Gatlinburg Craftsmen Fair show for (basically) ever, and they always stay at this cabin. There was just enough room for us to crash with them!


The Craftsmen Fair is an 18 day show in the Convention Center downtown and they do this show twice a year. 


The weather was absolutely perfect. There was a little crisp in the air that made me reach for my sweater and pile 3 comforters on the bed! (even though Husband wore shorts most of the time) But it felt like Fall.


Things at the show are going well. We visited with vendors that seem more like family than booth-neighbors.


But then again, after all these years of doing the show, they really are family...


The big sisters snuck out with MeMe early Friday morning. They rode around the town, shopped, were gone most of the day. They returned with lots of goodies and a plethera of stories about MeMe's driving!


That night we went out to eat at the Apple Barn and had apple cider and apple fritters...or apple 'critters' as Diva likes to call them. They also serve the best chicken pot pie in the world!


I took pictures at the booth so that we'll have some pictures to use for the new glass studio website that is in the works. (more on that later)


But I figured that most of you guys just want to see pictures anyways, so I decided to share them with you too.


And we're taking orders for Christmas...so if you see anything you like, let a girl know :)


MC did really well on her first loooong driving trip and sleeping in the pack-n-play.

She's such a social girl...I think her favorite part was waving at everyone that passed! (and in almost every picture we took!)


The leaves were absolutely beautiful, so we did take the time to snap some more recent family photos.


This tree in particular really outdid itself!!







My main goal on this trip was to see a bear...Guess this will have to count this year!

I really like these stained windows. I really wish that I had something like this in my home. That would be so nice. Thanks for sharing all of these great pictures with us!
