What We have been Up-To!!!!!!

Dear Blog Friends,   Today's post talks about 3 events we have been participating in recently.  First of all,  we visited Loyston Point Campground here in TN (on Norris Lake) to visit Mark and Robin on April 2 where they were camping for the weekend.  Secondly, we visited BILTMORE to see the Tulips on April 12,  and thirdly, we went to a funeral (my sons'  aunt) in Knoxville on April 16.  Funerals are always bittersweet. Losing a loved one is never easy, BUT getting some Family Fellowship time including Pictures is JOY....About 16 of us went to Dinner following the service.   Hope you enjoy seeing all three events in today's pictures!!!


There's nothing better than sitting around a campfire in a gorgeous setting with wonderful people --AND enjoying the S'mores of course!!!!!! Ha!



We took a couple of walks around that beautiful lake.. That's Robin, George and Bert in the photo.



This is an internet picture of that awesome campground!!!  Such a beautiful and peaceful place!



We always enjoy seeing all of the multi-colored TULIPS when we go to Biltmore.



Some of the individual Tulips for you to enjoy!



Pretty Tulip



Love these colors together



We took a short hike above the Walled Garden to show you some of the tulip beds from a distance.

Some of the Azaleas were blooming 



I love the colors of this Azalea.   We hope to go back to Biltmore soon to see more of the Azaleas which hadn't bloomed yet when we were there.



After eating dinner, we went outside of Calhoun's to take some pictures.  Here's one that George took of me with my wonderful sons and daughters-in-law!!  From left to right:  Robin, Mark, Mom, Bert ,Jeff, Dawn;  What an awesome family I have.



And of course,  I just HAD to have a picture with my 3 sons: Jeff, Mark, Mom, and Bert



We've taken one more little day-trip  (April 21) to Fall Creek Falls State Park here in Tennessee.  My next Blog Post will feature that amazing little trip!!!  Have an awesome week --and enjoy Spring!!!! Love to ALL!!!
