What a busy week we have had! We finally got a break or did we? We packed so much into one week that we’re not sure we can call this fall “break”! It’s so tiring, and that’s coming from Elizabeth!
The week is almost over and we got to fit a few things in, well maybe more than a few! We had big plans to attend a wedding on our first day together, but unfortunately, Hurricane Matthew had other ideas. We made it halfway there and had to turn around. We were disappointed, but we made the best of our evening anyway by having ice cream.
We made a visit to Biltmore and hitched a ride on a carriage! We saw wild turkeys on our excursion and Elizabeth wants to mention the horse poop. It smelled a little. The view was really good (except the back end of the smelly horse)! The Biltmore House was amazing, and this particular view is only available if you take a carriage or trail ride. Plus, you got to pet the horse’s muzzle. The only part that was annoying was that Aunt Jenn had to take so many pictures - if Aunt Jenn is typing this, she shouldn’t have to write bad things about herself, but this is our blog, so I guess we both have a voice??
We explored downtown playing Pokemon Go, and we carved an amazing pumpkin. The pattern we used was BB-8, because that’s Elizabeth’s favorite Star Wars character. While not an easy carving, he was cute and cool.
Finally, Elizabeth made it to Grandma and Grandpa’s house, and convinced them to go hiking. The mountains this time of year are incredibly pretty. She also got to visit the Cherokee Museum. Sadly, Aunt Jenn had to work and missed this adventure. Elizabeth got some magnets at the museum which are actually really cool.
Now Elizabeth and Aunt Jenn are reunited and sitting on the couch writing about their time together in the mountains while listening to Cocoa snoring.
