February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in. I finally purchased a new monthly focus board. We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face. I am glad that I saw it but I am good for a while on sad movies, even if they do end good! My oldest daughter, her husband and their son participated in the Spartan race which is a series of obstacle courses that challenge. They done so well. As you can see from the pictures it gets pretty muddy! My three daughters participate each year in the Gate River Run. I love it that they do this together.

I didn't get pictures of everything because we went to so many different places. Dixie Stampede is always one of my favorite places to go. Great food and awesome show. Of course I shopped everywhere! Little Dolly's. Thrifts stores, Bass Pro shop and you name it and we stopped! But one of my all time favorite places that makes me just appreciate God's blessings has got to be Cade's Cove.
Meet Mr. Buck!
Beautiful Scenery
The Mill
Church
Neat little store at Cades Cove
Had to stop at a few Water Fall Areas
Upside Down House
The Titantic
Oh and this Knife Place was AWESOME. When Marty first told me we were going there cause he had heard so much about this place I must admit that I was not very excited! I thought "KNIVES".....
This place was unreal! It had anything and everything you could imagine...and you talk about knives...WOW! Well, I found the Kitchen department in the basement.........Needless to say we went twice to visit and shop there that week! I loved it.
This barn was on the main road going to the cabin we stayed in. Loved it!
Ooh and we shopped at the Bass Pro Shop. I love that store too!
We came out of there with some goodies! Husband was happy for sure!
A little better look...
I hope you have enjoyed the Cabin in the Mountains and all the vacation pictures over the last several weeks. I've sure enjoyed sharing our vacation with you...well...in pictures anyway! Ha!
Can't wait till next year..If the Lord is willing we shall visit the mountains again!
GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!
Hugs and blessings, Cindy

ReplyDeleteCindy,
ReplyDeleteYour pics look familiar :) I just love going to Cades Cove! When we were there last week we saw so many turkeys. They were everywhere! Of course the deer are rampant and I could watch them all day.
Did you go to the Titanic? It is very interesting. We went soon after it opened. I always like going to the Dixie Stampede too! And the Knife Place is fun isn't it ... I was like you on first thought!
You will have to let me know the name of the cabin you stayed at ... so cute!
Hugs,
Donna

ReplyDeleteI am so glad you enjoyed your visit to our wonderful mountains. I love living here. It is so great to look at the views while driving anywhere in town. And Cades Cove is one of my favorite places in the world. My daughter is a product specialist at Knife Works. She has been there for 13 years. I love going over there to see what all that have in kitchen gadgets and home decor. She does their Facebook page too. You should check it out sometime. Again, so glad you had such a wonderful trip. Your pictures are awesome. Thanks for sharing.
