Little Cabin in the Mountains...

This past weekend I took my first Mayfield family vacation!  Michael's aunt and uncle have a cabin in Clarksville, GA (right outside of Helen) so, Michael's parents, his sister, her friend and Michael and I went for the weekend.  We had such a fun time!  The cabin was picture perfect!  3 bedrooms, fireplace, screened in porch with a swing - just lovely.  
Absolutely adorable!
 
Michael and I got there around 10:30 Friday night and caught the end of Home Alone 2.  On Saturday, we drove to Helen, GA - that was my first visit there.  I wasn't that impressed but it was still fun seeing the town.  We drove to Highlands, NC - which was really nice (and expensive).  We didn't get to stay there as long as I would have liked - but that was probably a good thing because I would have spent a lot more $$ otherwise.
 

 

This was the view from a pottery shop - breathtaking!

After Highlands we drove to Dillard and went to a restaurant called the Dillard House - OH MY WORD - the food!  You didn't order - they just brought out what was on their menu for the day and served it family style.  It was like Thanksgiving!  4 meats, 8 vegetables, fruit, bread and dessert.  STUFFED but oh so good!  They also had a small animal farm which was adorable too!

Oh the food and I couldn't get the entire table in the photo!





  


 
 
Our evening was a night of Christmas Vacation and playing a competitive game of Aggravation - fun times!

On Sunday we slept in, packed up and had leftovers for lunch!  Then had to head home. What a fun weekend we had!  I look forward to many more Mayfield vacations!!
