Asheville!
We headed west for Easter weekend, for a nice break from reality. North Carolina is a beautiful state, and we live smack in the middle. Three hours to the mountains, 3 hours to the beach. This time of year is perfect for a mountain trip, and we scored some tickets to the Biltmore Estate, which is somewhere you should try to visit someday if you haven't! Zach and I explored Asheville last year for our anniversary, and LOVED taking the kids to the house and gardens. They were shocked by all of it and had a great time! Here is a photo dump of our trip.
Hopefully I'll be able to add more pictures soon. Happy Tuesday!
Driving in to Asheville. See? NC has some big(ish) mountains. |

I'm not good at photography, but that gives you an idea of where we hiked :) |

nice view! |
I think you can see why it's called the Blue Ridge |
It was a fabulous day to hike! |
Easter Sunday is when we toured the Biltmore House. We couldn't take pictures inside. but it is stunning. They were having an easter egg hunt on the lawn! |
They wondered why we couldn't build a castle like that :) |

We walked all around the gardens too. Nothing much has bloomed due to the cold winter. I have more pics on my phone that I'll share soon! |
Love this view!!! |
What a fun trip! I can't believe I've lived here nearly 5 years and haven't visited the Biltmore estate yet. Derp!
ReplyDeleteAnd please tell Zach I really love his man-tights. So awesome.
