This weekend we had the amazing opportunity to go stay in a cabin in Gatlinburg, TN that belongs to one of our gracious church members! It was such a blessing to getaway as a family & create memories together. We had a blast and really enjoyed the sights & foods in Gatlinburg! We made stops at The Pancake Pantry, The Peddler's Steakhouse, No Way Jose's (mexican food!), & The Applewood Farmhouse restaurant at The Apple Barn in Pigeon Forge (DELICIOUS!)! Also made some stops by the Tanger Outlet mall & some "hiking" in the Nat'l. Parks with Brian & the kids. 
Such a beautiful place and a great reminder of how creative our CREATOR is!

We came back to LongHollow for the last service Sunday morning to see my cousin, Courtney & her hubby Andrew lead worship as a Guest worship leader. SO great to see them & their 3 sweet kiddos. The last time Courtney & I saw eachother, I was pregnant with Parker & her middle child was only 4 months old! We had them over to hang out & eat dinner at our house last night. 

Here is a pic of all the "2nd cousins" together!
