Banner Elk, NC.

Our family ski trip has begun :) It started today after Christmas at 8 am. Whew, at first it was so fun and thrilling to ride on the interstate and see the beautiful snow scenes out the window.

That was our wonderful winter wonderland to drive through from Auburn all the way to North Carolina!

When we finally got close to Banner Elk it was starting to get dark and super snowy... Eck! What a mess. Me, Elizabeth, Katherine, Matthew, and Blake were all following Mom and Dad and we just had to watch them slipping and sliding all the way up. But don't worry... we made it safe and sound. And after enjoying a frozen pizza with Grandmother and Grandaddy we just relaxed around the cabin. Now awaiting the arrival of the rest of the family over the next few days!

(please notice how deep that snow is!)
