Mother's Day weekend and sorts

The MOUNTAIN: There is this mountain that every time we travel we see. Its somewhere outside of Winston Salem NC. We all call it something different. I call it the hump mountain, Chloe calls it the weird mountain and Caitlyn calls it my mountain. So on every trip I usually take a picture of the mountain from the car. Something weird we started to do. Crazy I know. So this weekend Dale saw a sign that read Pilot Mountain. I said I guess that's the mountain we always talk about, then we saw a sign for Pilot Mountain State Park. So on our way back yesterday we decided to stop and take a look at our famous mountain we talk so much about.

Here is our picture from the road. Then the sign that lead us up, up the mountain.
Our first picture at the overlook. The kids thought it was so cool. Then we saw some trails off to the side and decided to take a short walk. After climbing up some rocks we made it to the top. The top of the mountain is in the background. You can get to the top of it, but its a more difficult trail. Not with 3 small kids. Maybe another time.

Here Chloe and Caitlyn were "rock climbing"
The girls striking a pose.

This was a funny shot of us. I had to set the timer on the camera and hurry to get in it. Notice the "hump mountain " in the background.


This was a great way to end our weekend. I had a wonderful mothers day. I am so blessed to be the mother of 3 wonderful children.

Yesterday we went to church at The Fairmont Alliance in Fairmont, WV. Our good friends Larry and Natalie Hissam serving there. We had a great time catching up with them and their family. We got to enjoy a lovely breakfast served by the men of the church. It was such a nice treat.

The Wedding
This weekend we went out of town to Fairmont, WV for one of my best friends wedding. We were able to see a few friends from college and Dale got to show the kids where we went to college and all sorts of things. A lot has changed in 1o years, but Dale had fun.

Here is Caitlyn enjoying the chocolate covered strawberries.

Dale and the kids loving on him.

Me and Jessica

The girls were getting down on the dance floor. Here they are doing the chicken dance.

They had the money dance so they paid and danced with Jessica. All 3 of them. How sweet.

We had a great time at the wedding. We wish Jessica and Matt the best. May their marriage be blessed.
Here is daddy with his little man.

Well this was just a few of the pics I took from the weekend. We had a blast, but glad to be home.
