    Mountain Getaway 2016: Lake Lure

    Growing up, my grandparents and great-grandparents lived in the mountains of NC and every Christmas my family would make the trek up there to spend some time with them.

We need some time to unwind, relax and just enjoy each other before we welcome our sweet little girl into this world. via

I will keep it short and simple, and if you’d like to know more, I’d be happy to answer any questions in a private email but I would NOT recommend flying with Frontier Airlines. Cory and I both decided after just one flight with them that we’d never fly with…
