A Mountain Wedding


     The first weekend in October, Kyle and I went to the Highlands/Cashiers area of North Carolina for a wedding for our friends Allison and Matt. I'm not going to lie, we were pretty pumped about the trip for multiple reasons. The main one of course was that Allison was getting married but other than that, we were super excited to visit the mountains and see some friends we had not seen in a while. Basically The Whitts were pumped about our first road trip!! We were both so excited we were wide awake a 6:30 a.m. (pretty much a miracle for me) and left a whole hour earlier than expected.
     One of the nice parts of the trip was that I got to travel to some parts of the North Georgia mountains that I hadn't seen in years. When we got to North Carolina we stopped at the Highlands to eat lunch and walk around the town. When The Tubbs got into town we made our way over to Cashiers to High Hampton Inn where the wedding events took place and where we stayed. Since I'm new to the blog scene I totally forgot to take pictures of the resort...need to get better about that. We did however take a lovely nature walk with the Tubbs outside our cabin.

This picture pretty much sums up our friendship

     Hanging out with Callie and Stu is always so much fun! Kyle and Callie go way back. As in they both lived in Montgomery and went to St. James. Me and Callie were KDs together and she is actually the one who introduced me to Kyle. Isn't she just the sweetest friend? Anyway, Friday night a group of us went to dinner together at the Game Keeper's Inn. Kyle had the antelope (go figure) but wasn't that impressed.

     The day of the wedding was freezing but absolutely gorgeous! The wedding was that morning at a church in the Highlands with a reception following at High Hampton. After the reception, we settled in for a day full of football. Alabama beat Florida 38-10. Here are some shots from the wedding minus the pictures with my parents who also came to the wedding. I seem to have lost those.



     On the way back home, we stopped at The Varsity in Atlanta for lunch. I hadn't been there in forever and was pretty pumped when we decided to go there. If you've never experienced The Varsity check out the link. The grease food is amazing!!! Here's a glimpse at big girl's lunch. Chilli Dogs!
