BFF Backyard Picnic

Nothing like a Spring backyard picnic.

Lady Juliet Awaits

Lady Juliet had a great time hanging out with Ms. Connie and her Golden Retriever, Cameo. This little girl has had a wild ride in her 8 weeks.

Pancake Pantry

Pancake Pantry, still the best breakfast in Gatlinburg.  And this girl, still the best.  Eleven years, untold miles.  A few ports of call, a few dozen destinations. But really, it isn't about the years, the miles, the ports of call or even the destinations. It's about a journey. A shared love. A shared faith and a shared passion for the things that make us "us."

I celebrate the extreme goodness of being joined in covenant with my soulmate. This girl, this smile, this friendship, this union. This...I celebrate this. I celebrate her. I celebrate us. Deborah Cain, you. That's all. You.

Mountain Coaster Fun

Introducing Papa to the Mountain Coaster.  My kids have ridden it so many times they knew exactly where the camera was and when to mug for the shot.

Cowgirl In Her Element

Fresh off the mountain coaster, time to saddle up for some nature time.

Trail Ride

Nothing like the tranquility of a trail ride in the Smokies.

Cowboys & Cowgirls

Papa and Isabella acquired new hats for their trial ride.

Feeding the Wildlife

Panning for Gold

It happened.  Isabella's first experience at panning and Gold Fever took over. She can't wait to go panning again.

Fishing from the Bank

Skyler elected to fish while we were on horseback.
