It's A New Dawn, It's A New Day....

...so our house guests that are here visiting with us right now are going to move up here!! Just like we did, they are saying "goodbye" to the ever-lasting heat of Louisiana and "hello" to the cool mountain breezes of North Carolina! I have a full week of activities planned for them and lots of people for them to meet! So Wayne & I hiked up to "Roan Mountain" Thursday and it was awesome:We even caught a glimpse of the rare "Gray's Lily" that only blooms a very few places in the world:And then Friday night we went to the amphitheater downtown to listen to some awesome Jazz music from the "Odd Meters" ~ and visit with friends:...if you are wondering who that little boy is running up to the band, it's none-other than "Little Jack" ~ He loves to stand right in front and be the first one to clap when the music stops. I'm 100% convinced that he will be on the very front row of every concert he ever attends {unless he's in the band, of course} ~ he gets cuter & cuter by the day. And now, he's expecting a new little brother or sister {we hope sister} any day. What a great night, plus, I got a rare & awesome opportunity to catch a shot of another side of my beautiful friend, Anne:
I did all the "fancy" stuff using "Picnik.com" ~ it's awesome!!! You should try it, if you never have.

Gotta run ~ time to get ready for a dinner party tonight! Happy Monday!
♥ & peace always ~ Kathy

  1. I know if I ever visit again, to see my niece, that I'll want to stay. I always used to tell Clancy, the only other place I'd live besides where we are now, is in NC and particulary, Asheville. Lucky you!
    But then again, I've lived in Louisiana and going from there to Michigan..shocking! Weather shock, culture shock...
    Love the pics, but hope to never see *my* rear end in one...lol.
