Monk Mountain Trip 2017: Helen, GA
This summer we had the awesome opportunity to go to North Georgia with our whole family!! Rich and I had booked a small cabin for us and the girls, and then Mom got a campsite for her, dad and the Cogdills!! It was a SUPER fun week, with lots of cousin and "big kid" fun!!
 |
| Night 1- we all walked down to North GA BBQ and then headed over for some put put!! |
 |
| This was the girls first Put Put experience, and I think it is safe to say that they LOVED it!! |
 |
| This swing might collapse with CUTENESS!!! |

 |
| Ice Cold mountain river running straight through our resort!! The girls LOVE to explore the river!! |
 |
