Family Time

After a couple of really crazy weeks of everyone going in different directions Eddie and I got up Sunday morning and decided to just shove everything off the calendar and just go play. We decided to take a drive to Desoto State Park and Desoto Falls in Mentone, AL. The drive up was absolutely beautiful. The park was so pretty with all the color. This picture looks like a postcard, the leaves and the boathouse reflected off the water, Bri even asked if the water was glass.






We packed a picnic lunch which we ate at the top of the falls, which is just behind us in this picture. After we ate we explored the area. On the way home we went home through Guntersville and ate dinner at Top Of the River. It was such a nice day spending time together and just hanging out, no rush to get here or get this done, or meet this person. Alex is growing up so fast and our days like this together are getting fewer so I really treasure the days we have.

That sounded wonderful!! A couple of months ago we "kidnapped" our two and went to Mt Cheaha and spent the night. It was so much fun not having to be tethered to the everyday happenings. I know exactly how you feel with Alex. In the next 2 months Zack is turning 16 and Beth 18, We've truly got to make the most of our time with our kids..
