Head for the Mountains!

What an adventure.  We returned to the "crazy city"  to spend some time with Carmen, Mike, Ian and Max.  We had a great time!  

We hiked Clingman's dome!  Silas made the trek in his crocs because I forgot to bring any other shoes for him...  I also did not bring warm clothes for the kids.  I wasn't expecting the cold temperatures and rain.  Anna got to hitch a ride, given she was cold and all we had in the car was a blanket to wrap her up in(thanks, Jeanne).  Carmen is expecting, but Silas and I took more breaks.  It was so nice to go hiking with friends!
