From Sand to Snow

We had a busy Christmas (what's new? Ever seen four Christmases? Well we hit three this year.), but it was restful and joyous. Well, after we Smiths got over our illnesses (hence why I have practically zero Christmas pics), we had a great time. My brother-in-law and Mother-in-law took us on a nice stroll on the beaches of St. Simons. Windy but beautiful! (I like Matthew's angel wings here!)

After St. Simons and St. Marys, and a Christmas with the Blair/Maupin clan, we headed on a blissful babymoon. This was our humble abode in Bryson City, NC. Looks huge, but we just rented the bottom half for a few nights. 

We ate tons of great food and just vegged out together. The downtown bakery had the most amazing homemade bread that made the most incredible french toast, ala Matthew!

Then God answered our prayer... it snowed!!!

Just had a little snow at the cabin even though it was freezing!

When we ventured out, Matthew was ready for a blizzard. What is it about guys and their hiking sticks?

The view from the cabin was awesome!

All we had to do was drive 30 minutes and we hit several inches of snow!

First time at this spot in the Smokies!

The fresh mountain air revived us after the busy holidays.

Don't be fooled by the smiles, Matthew was a sore Yatzee loser, and rummy loser, and scrabble loser.... hmmm. I was in the gaming groove!

We found a great coffee shop (of course) called Cork and Beans, and we splurged as if we were back in Paris. The crepes were just as tasty as the French originals.

We loved chilling just us two, but we are pumped about baby Smith's arrival in 3 months!
