AT Update and What I've Been Doing...

Well, here it is.... Day NINE away from my wonderful husband. He's section hiking part of the Appalachian Trail in Virginia. He and his dad have section-hiked from Springer Mountain (just outside of Helen, GA) all the way to Waynesboro, VA (that's where they were last night). I was afforded the chance to go with them three summers ago and my! it was an adventure. I was really bummed that I wouldn't be picking up with the trail this summer with them, but let's face it: a 30-week pregnant lady with a 14 month old really wouldn't be much fun to bring on the AT. Maybe next summer...

My brother and Sean (another guy from our church) went along with Brian and Pops this year. Unfortunately, Sean came home early. BUT I did steal these pictures from him to show you a bit of the trip thus far...

Yeah, those last two are of Brian jumping off some bridge that was along the AT. My crazy, adventure-seeking husband... Sigh.

In other news, my Aunt and my Grandparents came to visit from North Alabama this past Thursday through Sunday. I am so glad that they made the trek. Caleb and I both had a lot of fun with them. The little guy is quite the social butterfly. He had been in this stage where he wasn't to keen on hanging around people he wasn't 100% familiar with (which meant that his social calendar was packed with either me or Brian). But I was graciously surprised to find that he is out of that phase and in one that is much more enjoyable.
