Happy Birthday, Aaron!


We didn't get an anniversary trip this year, so we combined a weekend away with Aaron's birthday celebrations. 


First stop, Serenity Farm Bread in Leslie. The combination of their handy location, delicious sourdough, and a bathroom make it one of our favorite places to stop.


Then we checked in...The Wee Nook was exactly what we needed.


Cute Highland cows.


My morning "Jesus and Coffee" canine buddy.


A beautiful and quiet place to work through "The Art of Marriage" series together.


This is an excerpt from one of the videos :)


We explored some new trails each day. First, we tried Big Creek Cave Falls. Not much water was flowing this time of year, but it's still fun to tromp around.


We stocked up on local apples, sweet potatoes, and winter squash at Friend Orchard just outside of Harrison. We almost didn't stop, but I'm so glad Aaron made the U-turn. We came home with three different kinds of apples, and because they were "number 2" not "number 1" apples, the price was cheaper. Next time we are up this direction, I will check to see what else they are harvesting!


We also enjoyed a brunch splurge at Sweet Honey Cafe and Bakery in Harrison.


We followed brunch by exploring Hideout Hollow Trail.


The leaves were just beginning to turn vibrant, and it looked like this trail would be an amazing place to visit when more water is flowing.


More and more, we're once again considering trail through the lens of "kid friendly", and this trail certainly qualifies! Not too long and not too steep.
