"Smoky Mountain Saloon"

Merry Christmas from the Gents and Southern Belles at the Smoky Mountain Saloon!

We arrived in Charlotte, NC on Dec 20 and spent the night in Mooresville with my twin sister (far right) and her family, and then packed up all 8 of us and headed to the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. We stayed in a condo/cabin in the "Hidden Mountain" area... near Seiverville and Knoxville. After 3 days there, we returned to Mooresville for Christmas. We went to church on Christmas Eve day, and had a nice supper and opened a couple of presents.

This morning the chaos was unleashed as Joel and Alisha (9 yrs and 7 yrs) were allowed to wake us all at 6:30 for their gift opening. Paper flew and the kids gleefully tore through each package thanking each giver if present. The grande finale was the new bikes in the garage from their Amma and Grampa (my mom and step-dad, above left).

Hope your Christmas was as incredible as ours. More pics and updates later, probably on the weekend when we get home and have pictures downloaded etc.

Blessings,
DC
