Loving Lanier: Mountains!

This weekend, we decided to take a trip up to my in-laws mountain house. They built it a couple of years ago in the North Georgia mountains and it is the perfect weekend getaway. We were supposed to head up on Friday, but Daniel's sister, Rebecca, had her baby...Brooks David Doster that evening! He was 9lbs 7 oz...a big boy and has the sweetest face you've ever seen. We were so excited to welcome him and I can't wait to watch him and Lanier grow up together.

Saturday morning, we woke up and headed to the mountains. The weather was BEAUTIFUL, at about 70 degrees. When we drove up to the house, the grandparents and my brother-in-law's family were sitting out on the wrap around porch enjoying the sunshine. We quickly fed the babies (Lanier and her cousin Chappell) and then headed out for a hike. The owner of the property around the house had just cut a new trail, so we strapped the babies in their carriers and headed up the mountain. It was a great day that ended with homemade pizza's and smore's by the fire. It was so nice to spend time with Lanier's grandparents, Grandmama and D Daddy. It's also so fun to watch Lanier and Chappell interact. We feel very lucky to be surrounded by our family in Atlanta, and also that we are able to join them for mini vacations in the mountains. Here are some pictures from our weekend!
