Family Vacation at Big Canoe





It is that time of year again for us to make our family trip to Big Canoe!!! We started this family tradition last year and the kids loved it so much that we decided to keep it up. We went back and forth this year about maybe going somewhere else but we have so much fun up here and it is so close to home (Which Tom loves!!!) that it keeps us coming back. We are so blessed to be able to spend this time together as a family and Tom and I cherish the memories that come out of it for us and the kids. One of the biggest blessings is that we are able to share this with my mom and dad (known as Ommie and Granddaddy!!!) Last year we also enjoyed it with Tom's family (known as Grandma Heaton and Poppie!!!) These family memories are ones that can never be replaced and it is such an honor for both Tom and I to have such wonderful grandparents for our children that are willing to take the time to make these memories. We love you all and really hope that this is a tradition that will last a lifetime. It is after vacations like this that we realize that you can never put a price tag on family. These kinds of memories will last a lifetime and could never be replaced by the material things that this world tries to offer. We thank God everyday for blessing us with our savior his son and allowing us to raise the wonderful children he has given us. Next year we look forward to sharing this memory with our newest family member Camden!!!! Thank you Lord for the beauty you place in front of me daily!!!
