Parents Weekend in the Mountains

This weekend, my parents made the trek from Louisburg to see Elkin first hand and to stay at the Kennedy's. We relaxed, talked wedding, and toured the town. It was a great time and we are both fortunate to have such great families!

As usual, the weekend involved food and drink... in large amounts.

Dad and Bella were exhausted by the day in Elkin, and all of the good football on tv.

PK and Ma Brown.

All smiles after a good meal.

Stone Mountain

We went to Elkin this past weekend to see the Kennedy family, and early on Saturday morning, we left to hike up to the top of Stone Mountain. Its a short drive from town, so PK and I went to celebrate his birthday and to get a little break from wedding talk. Haha... no, really. At the start of our hike, it was pretty cold, but by the end, we were shedding layers as the sun came out. It was a gorgeous day!

First sighting of "stone"

For the parents...

Taking in the view from the top... and wishing we had made the trek a few weekends before since the leaves had mostly fallen.

PK was filming an advertisement.

I was excited about the Blue Ridge behind me... pretty obvious how they got their name. We could see one of the Parkway lookout points along the ridgeline.
