Spring Break - Day 8

Today we were supposed to go back to NC but since I was sick most of the week we decided to extend our trip one more day so I could have some time with Doug and Cook.  We spent the morning and afternoon with them and enjoyed a trip up to Batesville, Ga.  We went to a pottery shop called, Mark of the Potter, and watched them making pottery, shopped in the neat store, and enjoyed the beautiful stream behind the store.  The girls had fun feeding the fish.  We then headed to the Batesville General Store for lunch.  It is a quaint little restaurant with good food and yummy desserts.  When we got back Regan played the flute for Mama Cook and Papa Doug, Riley tried to beat Papa Doug in Chess and we had a family prayer time.  Then we had to say, goodbye, which is never easy!  Thanks Doug and Cook for a fun week and we look forward to seeing y'all again sometime this summer.

Saturday night we had a great dinner with my parents and then Kim, Jeff and Jonathon came over to say, goodbye.  It was a great week with everyone and we thank all of you for taking time out of your schedules to spend time with us!!!

 Sweet cousins!

The girls did not want Uncle Jeff to go so they attached themselves to him.
