A Summer Excursion

Just wanted to share that we are now 12 month pass holders
to the largest privately owned home here in Asheville.
The kids and I are quite excited to explore the once
125,000 acre estate and pick out a favorite
picnic spot.  Not sure how large the estate is now.

I doubt we will visit the 4 acres of floor
space (how many square feet is that?) the house
boasts.  But if anyone wants to stop and visit this
summer, we can get discounted tickets.

There is the great pond on the way out of Biltmore it is on the right of the road, when you are on the back sid eof the house, there is a little dirt raod right before the pond, you can turn and go over a little rock bridge and tehn pull over at anytime. There is agreat photo op - of the back of the biltmore and there are a bunch of ducks to feed. I hope you find it, it was one of my favorite spots!

I will definitely be hunting these spots down. Savannah and I are quite excited. We spent 1 full day and did not come close to seeing the entire grounds.

Girls Camp

 This year, Savannah got to attend her very first girls camp. Here she is with Morgan, another first timer.  Not sure how Savannah would have done without Sister Skroski. She showed Savannah the ropes and really took care of her in my absence.  Savannah all excited to leave. I can only guess what these last few pictures are. Savannah had a great time and Larry was there as a priesthood chaperone so she was not completely alone. This summer was a summer of firsts for my girl. She had her first girls camp, her first youth Temple trip and her first talk in sacrament. Wow!

12 Wonderful Years

Saturday was mine and Larry's 12 year anniversary.  We enjoyed an absolute wonderful weekend together.  Larry was able to get off work friday at a decent time and did not have to go in on saturday.  And on Sunday, he did not have the early morning church meetings, so we were able to drive together.  As a matter of fact, we were able to enjoy a beautiful Christmas cantata on a gorgeous Sabbath morning. Friday evening we enjoyed  Don't ask me how I talked Larry Denzil into this, but I did and I enjoyed every minute of it. This was such a happy, girlie movie and I truly did enjoy every moment of it.  I love musicals and especially love music of the 70's.  I could remember so many of the songs as if they were new.  Listening to them in my dad's '73 camaro as he picked me up from the day care. Wow, how time flies. On saturday, I enjoyed breakfast that Larry prepared with the kids.  It was so nice to not have to cook.  Notice I did not say clean.  He did leave the mess fo
