Mountain air is good for the soul...

My gracious parents sprung for a cabin in Wears Valley TN (near Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg) for a whole weekend so we could have some much needed family time. I don't know when I have had so much fun...just doing nothing. We ate on Friday night at Tony Roma's (clam chowder was excellent)! Mr. Howard drove up on Saturday meaning we HAD to eat at Calhoun's in Gatlinburg that night...he lives for their ribs. We played Guesstures...which we've all played a million times but each time is funnier than the last. Sista brought a new game Pop Cranium it was so much fun. We also borrowed a Wii for the weekend and discovered that our Dad can "cut a rug" on Dance Revolution. I think Mom beat almost everyone at pool. The place we stayed was great and we even had a visit from a raccoon that trashed our trash! LOL And scared Sista half to death. It was fun...so much fun. I am so lucky and blessed with a wonderful and fun loving family who is ALWAYS there when I need them.

She's good at this game but her forte is POOL!!!!

My dad's hat...Mom and I clowning around! lol

My two best friends...
