A trip to Cherokee, NC
What a wonderful time we had in Cherokee at the Trout Derby. Every year, Our church youth goes to the Trout Derby. It is for children and teens. There are games and lots of prizes that are given away. Most of the people that attend camp under the stars, but of course Bethany and I stayed in a cabin in the woods. It was great! I also took advantage of the stay. I took Bethany to Santa Land. My parents took me there when I was a small child. It tickles me to be able to share my childhood experiences with my daughter.We visited Cherokee for 4 days.
One night Bethany, Nanny and I went out for pizza. One of Bethany's favorite dish.
Saturday morning we spent the day at Santa Land. There is games, rides for all ages, food, feeding zoo and activities for everyone. This is me and Bethany posing on Santa's sleigh.
In Santa Land there is multiple places to walk in and look at. There is this small church that I though was adorable. I have a wonderful picture of Bethany and her nanny praying. **Priceless** I hope they thanked God for all the blessings that has been poured upon us. Bethany enjoyed feeding the deers, bears and fish. One of Bethany's favorite thing was riding the train through Santa Land. We had to ride it 6 times. Which was fine with me. It gave me the chance to cool down and enjoy the ride. Another favorite activity was getting on a paddle boat and feeding the fish. It looked like millions of fish swimming up to the boat to be feed. We stayed on the water 1.5 hrs. That was my favorite part also.
Santa's House.
( I forgot to change the date on the photo. It was 8/7/10) I can't believe that Bethany sat on Santa's lap. Look close at Bethany's eyes... she is numb. She wasn't sure about Santa. She did tell him that she was a good girl. (Of course she will say "yes") She really has been a great kid. Santa told Bethany that she would have a great Christmas this year. I also made a video of Bethany talking with Santa. It is so sweet.
We went walking one evening and came upon this water hole on the street. It was the perfect place to take a cool down. The water rushes and at times the water squirts out of the holes in the ground which is Bethany's favorite part. This is a picture of Bethany taking a rest.
