Our Weekend Getaway

Kyle and Me went to "Helen" with Mama and Daddy. Well, really we went to Clayton which is where Talullah Falls is. We had a really good time. Being off in a cabin 30 minutes away from town or anything really isn't my cup of tea, but we stayed in town most of the time that we were there. The cabin that we stayed in is owned by a buddy of my Daddy's and he let's them go and stay there anytime they want to really for free. It's a really nice place, but it's 30 minutes up the mountain and it's a pig trail dirt road most of the way. I felt like we were in the middle of NOWHERE, but it is nice, really nice and that's where Mama and Daddy and Kyle want to be when they go to the mountains....not me though, I want to be where the action is. It was a really nice place tough and it was nice to relax a little. He has another buddy that has a place up there that's much closer to town and it's on a lake. Nick Sabin(sp) own's the lake house 2 doors down from this one and that's where I plan on stayin the next time that we go up there. This one was featured in an issue of Southern Living last year and it is aboslutely gorgeous! Daddy took us over there and gave us the Grand Tour. It's awesome and I can't wait to go and stay there. Ok so we got there Friday night at around 10ish and just kinda laid around til we went to bed. We got up Saturday morning and drove over to Cleveland GA and went to BabyLand General Hospital where the Cabbage Patch Babies are born. This was one of the highlights of our trip to me. Mama took me and Joy there we I was 10ish and she was 8ish, so it's been a very long time since we've been. Daddy stayed outside with Winnie and Me and Mama and Kyle went in. Oh my gosh! I was like a kid in there and they had a delivery right after we got there and I was so excited!!!! I ran in there to the "deliver room" and I couldn't wait! Kyle and Mama just rolled their eyes at me like "my gosh Jennifer! You're 35 years old and you're acting like an 8 year old!" I didn't care though. I was so excited!!! It was so much fun! I could hardly contain myself when they asked what the baby's name should be. I wanted to scream a name out, and I almost did, but I realized that there were 50 little girls in there and I needed to let them do it. I can't wait to take my girls and my nieces!!! I'm going to plan a trip very soon to take them, like in a few weeks if it's a good weekend for all the chicks in our family! Ok so then after that we went into Dillard and me and Mama shopped and shopped. I wanted to go to the Dillard House, but somebody told us that it cost 30.00 per person to eat there and Daddy and Kyle said HECK No we ain't paying that much to eat lunch. So there was this little place at the shops where we were shopping that had fried green tomatoes and fried okra, country fried steak, Green beans, fried squash, cathead biscuits, cornbread,etc. and good ole peach cobbler and so we decided to eat there and it was off the chain! And guess what the name of it was.?.?.?.? Annette's we didn't even realize it til we had ordered and we were sitting outside under the very nice covered deck/pavillion eating and I looked up and saw the sign. How neat was that? So then after that we took Mama and Winnie back up the mountain and got them all settelled in and then me, Kyle, and Daddy went back down the mountain to this place to watch the Auburn game since we didn't have cable tv in deliverence-ville and my husband can not miss an Auburn game. That was fun and then we went back up the mountain about 3 hours later (did I mention it was 30 mins. one way?) and called it a night. Today we got up and packed up the cars and headed out. We stopped at this place in town called Goats On The Roof, on our way out today to get the kids some shirts. I Loved, Loved, Loved this place! It was the other highlight of my trip! It was so neat. They had live goats that live on the roof. It had these little things where you can buy goat food and put it in this little can and crank the can up to the roof and then it dumps the food in the little trough for them and they eat it. We had a lot of fun there and I can't wait to take the kids there when we go back there on our next vacation trip. I've put a slide show at the top of the page to share our pictures. We had a really good time.

And last but certainly not least Happy Birthday to my Leslie yesterday. I hope you had an awesome day! I love you loads puddin!

Ok well I'm aobut to call it. I'm give slap out. I love ya'll!
