Seems crazy that my last post was about signs of Spring. When we left Connecticut about a month ago and it was still snowing! It feels SO GOOD to be back home in Florida and I am having no problem finding signs of Spring. We missed this place, our friends, and family tremendously. This past month has certainly been a busy one. Visiting with our friends and family was top priority when we got here, although we still have not seen everyone yet :( Justin, Charlie, and I have all turned another year older and had fun celebrating our May birthdays. We also have been working hard helping Matt and Steph move into their amazing new home!
We took advantage of the long weekend from Memorial Day and headed north for a trip to Maggie Valley, North Carolina. My mother-in-law just bought a house up there and the view is spectacular. It was an adventure filled trip with white water rafting (pictures coming soon), hiking, and a trip to the Biltmore. If bets were placed prior to us going rafting, my money would be placed on me falling out of the boat. After watching the safety video (which scares you to death) I knew I would be the one to fall out. I was wrong! We all safely conquered the Nantahala River and had a blast doing it. I would say Charlie had the most fun hiking and loved playing in the water. Walking the gardens was my favorite part of our visit to the Biltmore. I can only imagine how gorgeous they decorate it at Christmas time.
I will be spending my summer getting ready for the upcoming school year. I am thrilled to finally be going back into the classroom! I am also on my last few classes for my masters degree which will be my focus as well. I might fit a few beach days in here and there too :)
Keep you posted,
