Greetings from the mountains!!!!

Good morning!  We got in last night around 11:30, so we decided to sleep in a bit.  It was an uneventful trip, although half way through, my youngest woke up with a fever!  It figures.  I gave her motrin and she seems to be feeling better now.  She's been fighting a cold/cough for a few weeks, so I hope it's not settling in her ears.  I know, I've been complaining about being warm all the time, and how it just isn't normal to be in the 60's in January....but let me tell you, 28 is really cold!  I guess I forgot just how cold it can get!  I got up this morning and the carpet was cold....I havent experienced that since back in Indiana!  Guess who is kissing my feet that I packed those mittens and scarves????  I'm not sure what the plan is today, but I think we will be going downtown to the girls favorite store, Mast General.  It's an old-time general store with huge barrels of penny candy that you can buy by the bucket.  It usually costs us $10 per bag, for a bunch of candy that usually gets stuck together, dropped and covered with hair, and eventually thrown away mistakenly with the trash.  Oh well....isn't that what vacations are for?  (BTW, after I do my makeup and hair, I will try to take a pic....don't want to scare anyone!  LOL!)  (BTW2....it sounds weird, but I miss my journal buddies! Even though I have internet access....LOL....I'm so pathetic!)

Bundle up, stay warm and enjoy. It's hard to believe that NC is giving those Indiana winters a run for their money!

I hope your little one feels better soon. If the fever keeps up she may need an antibiotic. The store sounds very cute. Enjoy. We miss you too! Have a great time hun.
