Erin, As usual your pics and words are beautiful! I am glad you had a wonderful Christmas. The pictures of the Smoky Mtns. make me want to go there right now! I have only been there once when it was that beautiful and it was gorgeous. We love to go to Cades Cove. I wish I could live there :)
Blessings and Hugs,
Donna
