We booked a little cabin in the Smokies for a little weekend get-a-way for our 3 year anniversary. Our cabin was really awesome! It had a fireplace, hot tub, jacuzzi, pool table-just a nice retreat from school and work. It was in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, birthplace of Dolly Parton. We went to a Ripley's museum, did a fun/funny tour bus around the town and had our guide show us all the lights that were set up to attract tourists like ourselves (and we got to sing the whole "12 Days of Christmas" song as a bus). Fun. We went on a hike, went shopping, relaxed, and had a great time.
Christmas at the Lawson's. Christmas morning at the Moore's. Found out they're pregnant with their 5th, and it's a BOY! BYU basketball game for the guys. Sealing session at the temple with the fam. Addie and MaryAnn came out from L.A. Family day at Lowes Extreme Air Sports (a trampoline and rock climbing wall with foam pits to fall into). Addie took us all out to a Lawson family favorite Indian restaurant, Bombay House. We went out to Tin Tin, which was so fun to see. We made a really fun trip to Temple Square to see the lights and the church history museum. Late night game night playing Setters Of Catan and staying up so late we got pretty slap happy. Running by the Provo River and swinging on the big swing. Baptism photo shoot for Emeri. Scott was incredible and digitized all of the Lawson family scrapbooks from the last 30 years (almost 2300 pages).We got to go see the triplets Lovey used to nanny for. We got to see some of our best friends Catherine and Brad. Lovey got to go to breakfast with two of her best friends Brook and Katie.
Flying home was a long experience, but profitable. Our flight was full so we volunteered to get delayed and receive flight vouchers. It was pretty great because we each got $400 worth of flights. So we made $800 in under 5 hours. WOO hoo! Now we can go see our families whenever a special event might happen :)!
