It's Saturday afternoon, and I have a big to-do list waiting for me to tackle. Gabe and I are leaving tomorrow afternoon for Gatlinburg, Tennessee! We are going on a six day getaway with two of our favorite people, Phil and Kylee. This is our third spring break trip with them, and we are looking forward to the time away from home with good friends. We're staying in a sweet resort in the mountains, going to do some hiking, eat at some great places, play a lot of Phase 10, and fill ourselves with rest and relaxation. Gabe and are pumped to go!
Like I said, this is our third spring trip with the Larsons. We have also been camping with them every fall since we have been married. I think we are so blessed to have friends like them who want to travel with us and be with us for a week! Thursday after school I looked through my folders of pictures and pulled out 20 pictures from our different trips with P&K. I have such great memories from these trips and wanted to share with all of you!
Enjoy the trip down memory lane...
October 2008
Camping trip to Summit Lake
(no dogs yet...)
I didn't take very many pictures on this trip.
I didn't know it would be the first adventure of many!
Hello, Larsons!
March 2009
Spring Break trip to Myrtle Beach, SC
They love each other.
Notice the overcast weather...it was like this almost all week on this trip.
It didn't stop us from having a great time!
We had to get our pictures at every one of these.
I just noticed I am the little boy in this weird painting thing. Ha!
The fearsome four....I LOVE this picture.
It's in a frame in our house. As embarrassing as it is asking
someone to take a picture, I'm always glad I do!
We made a picnic lunch and ate it at this little park one cloudy afternoon....
Another fun pic from this trip!
We rented one of these four-seaters for an hour and got a workout!
It was no easy task pedaling through the streets of Myrtle Beach.
But we laughed and laughed!
October 2009
Camping trip to Turkey Run
Look how little Sadie was! She was only four months old and this was her first trip.
Sweet hubby Gabriel....he's so good with our hyper dog!!
This is another picture up in our house!
Turkey Run is one of my all-time favorite state parks to hike and camp.
The trails and canyons make you feel like you're not in Indiana!
The Larsons.
Gabe, Phil, and little Sadie.
I like that they're in the middle of laughing about who knows what.
This is what they do....make fun of each other and laugh about it!
March 2010
Spring Break trip to Kissimmee, Florida
This picture just shows you that Phil and Kylee are FUN.
We were walking back from CiCis Pizza and took crazy pictures like we were models.
Oh, Florida, how I miss you and your palm trees.
We went to the coast one day so we could see the ocean...Cocoa Beach I think.
We were very close to Orlando and so we visited Downtown Disney.
It had a ton of fun places to eat and walk around.
We ate at Rainforest Cafe, and we were ecstatic!
Oh, the men...
We love getting away together!
October 2010
Camping trip to Brown County
(Now, there's two dogs: Sadie and Hashbrown!)
I didn't take get a picture of Hashbrown on this trip though...
Our little family....soooo happy!
We LOVE camping trips.
Our new tent...
Kylee and the Larson tent.
March 2011
Spring Break trip to Gatlinburg, Tennessee
Pictures coming soon....
So there you have it. Three years of trips with our friends. I will take many pictures this coming week in Tennessee and try to post them on here when we get back. Looking forward to making more memories starting tomorrow when we take off for the south. Until then, I need to get going on that to-do list. :)
Happy Spring Break everyone!
