A Weekend in Boone, NC

Back in July we went to Boone, North Carolina to have a weekend with the Sherrill Family at Kim, Donald's and Robbie's house. They have a beautiful house, with an amazing lot full of trees and even a little stream up in the mountains, just of of the Blue Ridge Parkway. We were in a little piece of Heaven! The weekend as so much fun, with plenty of delicious food prepared by Kim, swimming in one of the many creeks, shopping, Art in the Park, bubbles (who would have thought it would be such a hit with a group with only one person under the age of 12!), and plenty of fresh blueberry and raspberry picking (and eating!). Minus a kind of smelly tent experience, we couldn't have asked for a more wonderful weekend with family. Hopefully we can make it up there sooner, rather than later next time around!!

Ferguson Family Reunion

A few weeks ago we headed to Gastonia for the Ferguson Family Reunion. It was well attended by much of the family and we had a great time seeing everyone. The biggest surprise was how big Ruth Ellen is getting, we couldn't believe it. She is up, run and yelling. Before long she is going to be talking it up!!

Vinny Update

Well, Vinny had surgery to have a lump removed from his leg about two weeks ago but I am glad to report that after a trying time for both dog and owners, he is back to new and happy as can be. Lets just say, everyone was happy when it was time for him to head out to the backyard as usual!
