Mamma's Friend from High School: Cherie (& Family)

Here is my friend Cherie, who is busy raising a wonderful family in Georgia, and who I was lucky enough to reconnect with via Facebook. Since Cherie and her family were vacationing in our area, we decided to meet at The Pisgah Inn for luch. SO much fun! The girls were happy to meet the children: Luke, Amanda, and Burnadette (left to right in the next picture). After lunch, we hiked a nice trail to Cade's Cove Falls. (Just a funny story. Cherie told me that Luke was a little upset that Leia was a "girl" UNTIL he found out her fascination with both dinosaurs and Star Wars, . . . then he found a friend for life. Ha!)
