Just to Warn you, this post has very few "normal" pictures.... 

So I hope you enjoy our crazy family;) I know I do!!

 We're going on a TRIP!!! "WooHoo"...

Yes, you're probably thinking we might as well 

live in North Carolina as much as we go there...

What can I say, Everyone needs a little mountain air, every once in awhile;)

(Some, more than others.)

If I put captions on all these pics, I'll never get done with this post I've been working on for weeks, soooo I'm just gonna post without captions (except a few) and you'll just have to use your imagination for the rest ;)

This is what I feel like when I go on these roads!!
Thank you, Dramamine!!

First one back!!! Oh yeah

At the Towncenter in Burnsville, NC. Opening for Steve Gulley and Dale Ann Bradley.
Excited and Nervous!!

One final practice.

It was an honor to open for such talented, friendly and down to earth folks!

One of Liv's favorite mandolin players from Balsam Range (Darren Nicholson),
who sat right in front of me the whole time. Talk about nervous!!
