weekend in jackson…part 1

it is a tradition in this family to spend a weekend in jackson with grandma and grandpa for a little rest and relaxation.  we always go in the fall so we can see the pretty fall colors and listen to the elk bugle in the evening.  we always stay at a cabin by the lake at signal mountain lodge, we love that view of the mountains by the lake.

my kids love to go down to the water with grandpa and throw rocks.  there is always a challenge from grandpa…usually it is something like, throw a rock and hit that buoy, and we can go get a treat at the gas station (my kids lovingly call it the skittle store:)  this year the buoy was a little too far away, so grandpa had to come up with a new target.

Love it. I looks like a perfect weekend. I wish we could freeze those moments in time and relive them a bit on the frenzied days.

What wonderful memories!
