A Weekend in the Smokies

This past weekend Coy and I spent a few days in the Smoky Mountains. Although it was only a few days it was great to be able to get away and celebrate our three years of being married. We rented an amazing and secluded cabin, where we were able to spend a lot of time relaxing on the deck and in the hot tub. It was so secluded that we were even able to spend a good majority of the time completely naked on the back deck in the middle nature. Pretty amazing. We shopped, hiked, ate, ate, and ate. My favorite part of all though was horseback riding! We went on a ride through the mountains and creeks and even got to see a bear with her baby cub on the ride. We finished the weekend with a 6 mile hike, which ended in 3 miles completely uphill and also included a lot some sobbing due to extreme pain and misery (I'm sure you can guess who these tears were coming from). Even despite this, it was a great weekend of being together and enjoying the beauty God created!
