A tee-tiny Family Getaway

Courtney (sister), Tony (brother-in-law), Isabella (niece), my parents, my grandparents, and myself went on a little adventure to Dale Hollow Lake.  We stayed in a cabin on the lake for a few days, rented a boat, layed out, and had an over-all good time.

Unfortunately, the day before we "set sail" (so-to-speak) I got my wisdom teeth removed.  I know, great planning on my part (more like my mother's).  So, that is why there are no pictures of me, because my face was swollen up like blowfish, and I was rather doped up throughtout the weekend.

Anyhow, I took a few pictures of our escapades.

Isabella can't help but look gorgeous

Even though it was damn hot, the lake was still lovely.

Travel Tip: if you are on some serious meds while traveling with family, make sure not to say anything too outlandish, or they will torment you relentlessly.

Bugle Boy from the Practically Perfect Collection

Adorable, youthful dress.  Would look great with colorful shoes, for a pop of color. 

Capulet Ring

I am so into big shiny rings.  This could add a classy, bold touch to any outfit.

Big 'ole bright lights

Our car was 4 levels under the Earth, and there was a traffic jam, so instead of sitting in a hot parking garage, we walked around Nashville.

Stuck in traffic trying to get home.  Way too many people were in the city.

Evan and I explored Nashville and discovered the settings on my camera to make light photos.

An over-all successful holiday.
