Quiet Weekends in Knoxville and our "Itty Bitty" Weekend

Bryson City, NC

A day at the pool

The past couple of weekends have been quiet. No traveling, lots of play time with Eli, and it has been nice to catch up with my husband again. It seems that the past few months we have been going and going. Even though we have enjoyed our trips to the beach and where ever the road has taken us, there is no place like home. Our weekends have included trips to the pool, baseball games, quiet dinners after the baby falls asleep, and catching up with friends we have neglected the past couple of months.


This past weekend, awhile we had free time once again, we skipped town Saturday morning and found ourselves in Bryson City, NC. We took a beautiful drive through the GSMNP and stayed in a quaint little cabin. Eli was trilled by the trains, people and blue grass music. Bryson City is a sleepy little town that reminds you to slow down and take your time. Everything was so simple, stores closed at 8 pm and the busiest business in town was the ice cream store...we couldn't resist. We woke up Sunday morning to a happy baby and then enjoyed a great breakfast followed by a cup of coffee on the front porch. Ahhhh...life is good!
