Smith-Jackson Vaca 2013

Friday, November 29, 2013

Way back in July, the Fresno Smiths, Fresno Jacksons, and Texas Smiths all joined us in North Carolina.  It was a great time and we really enjoyed getting to show off our new(ish) home town.

Important note: I am taking over posting a few blogs. Unfortunately for everyone reading this, I am not nearly as good of a writer as Vanessa is.  Hopefully the pictures really are worth a thousand words.


Before the cousins arrived, Jonah, Papa, and I took a walk around Bass Lake.


The rain did not detract from our fun time.

The first day that everyone was together, we went to the Blowing Rock Park.  The kids had fun and it was a good time for me to take pictures of all the cousins.

Hunter and I took a walk around the "Mountain House" (the house we all stayed in during the reunion).



The next day, we took a hike around Trout Lake. Vanessa, Brooklyn, and Hunter were exploring a little stream.

Cuz Noah was inspecting a caterpillar.
