Heading to My Happy Place

I couldn't be happier that this time tomorrow I'll be in my total 'happy place'.
Where is my happy place???
The mountains!
This comes as no surprise to most of you who have been reading this blog for some time now.
Tomorrow, my bff Kelli and I are heading to the Highlands, NC!
It's about a 4-hour drive from Charlotte so we plan on leaving early.
The Highlands is south of the Smoky Mountain National Park and very close to the Georgia state line.
We're staying near Main Street in downtown Highlands where we'll hit up all kinds of shops and restaurants.
But, I'm also excited about seeing the beautiful waterfalls around the area.
Like this one..
I've visited the Highlands twice.
Seven years and then when I took my nieces 5-years ago.
I'm overdue!
Of course, aside from seeing the waterfalls one of the main reasons for our trip is to hike!
That shouldn't surprise you!
We'll also be celebrating Kelli's birthday that is next week!
Should be a fun, relaxing weekend!
Can't wait!
And, speaking of birthdays...
Our niece, Hannah, turns 18 on Saturday!
This is a picture of us in the Highlands area back on her 13th birthday!
Oh, how time flies!!
Happy Birthday Hannah!
Until next week....
Hope you have a great weekend.
