Last weekend my family and I set up in Mineral Bluff in their cozy cabin to celebreate mom's big birthday. It was a pretty perfect weekend. The weather could not have been better and it was an event filled trip indeed. Saturday morning my sisters and I took mom to the spa up in Blue Ridge for the morning for some mani/pedi/facials (yeah, i just said the words mani/pedi/facial -- shocking I know). Ater, we piled into the car to go pick apples and take some pre-fall but post-summer photos of the world's most adorable 21 month old. The apple orchard we went to, Mercier Orchards, was adorable. It was small, homey, and very much what you would expect from the South's mountain region.

The rest of the weekend was awesome. Spent Sunday morning curled up in sweats on the cabin swing staring at the crisp mountain view. It was 46 degrees when mom and I headed up there for coffee!! It was a perfect way to start a Sunday.
Mom and I had an early morning visitor
The rest of Sunday was spent lounging around sprawled out on my sofa with a very handsome gentlemen watching hours and hours of the food network. Monday was just icing on the cake for such a chill weekend. Spent the day in good company out on a beautiful boat on Lake Allatoona just relaxing, drinking a beer or two, and enjoying a moment of peace for once!
Me. Relaxed. Whoa.
