Fall

This is my favorite time of year. I love the colors, the smells, the food and festivities, and most of all, the cool crisp air. It doesn't last nearly long enough, so I try to enjoy it as long as I can. This weekend we met up with Andy, Janelle, and Seth in the mountains. The colors were suppose to be at their peak, which made the drive up there a scenic pleasure.

We hiked up to the falls. It was a long/steep hike, 425 steps to be exact.

It really wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Although, my legs are definitely sore today because of it.

We stopped for a few pictures along the way.

The view was amazing

And we tried to take it all in

Some of us more than others. Cody was upset we tore him away from his Football Saturday. Kaitlyn tried to cheer him up. We did make it back in time for him to watch his beloved Bulldogs win their game!

After we made it back down the mountain, we headed into Dahlonega - A quaint little town nestled in the North Georgia Mountains. We have been there before when the kids were younger, but it is always fun to go back.

They have some fun shops with treasures and treats.

The yummy fudge that only lasted a few hours.

It was a beautiful fall day in Georgia, and I am so glad we were able to get out and enjoy it!
