Harper's mountain

Harper has been asking for months to go to the mountain she was named after. Not easily done as we live in NY and her mountain is on the North Carolina and Tennessee border. When she found out we were headed to NC for Thanksgiving her request to go intensified. So we ventured onto the Roan Mountain trail with a few other hardy souls looking to hike off some turkey dinner. While we all would have preferred long distance views and a tad warmer weather it was great to opt outside the day after Thanksgiving and stretch our legs before our drive home to New York.
 

Spring is feeling good!

It felt oh so good to spend the weekend mostly outside. It was sunny and blue skies all weekend. Lynnie Lou's opened up this weekend, do we rode down for some homemade ice cream. The first for the summer but I'm sure it won't be the last!

Harper likes to be in control

Here she is having taking control of the spoon.  She is somewhat successful at keeping the food in her mouth.

Yummy!

Oh, this is something new. Leaves. I should try it. Mmmm, crunchy!
