We had a great long Father’s Day weekend exploring Waynesville with Drew’s family. We have a tradition of going to the mountains on Father’s Day weekend and again in the fall (usually one trip is tent camping). Since we have a three month old, we stayed in a nice cabin on the top of a mountain that overlooked the valley. It was amazing getting to sit in the hot tub with a glass of wine and enjoy the breathtaking view!
On Friday morning, we went on a short 2.5 mile hike with both kids! I wore Walker in the K’tan and Drew had Reid in the Ergo. It was amazing getting to enjoy nature with the boys. That evening we went to Froglevel Brewery for a drink and music. They have a great patio and lawn space that overlooks a creek. Reid had a blast dancing to the music and playing with the rocks while we enjoyed each other’s company.
On Saturday morning, I explored the local farmers market with my mother in law and Reid. Reid loved listening to the music (and dancing) and found many friendly dogs (and a fire hydrant of course!). Later while the others went on another hike, Drew, the boys and I went to the local park to have some fun before nap time. Following naps, we loaded up the car and headed to Boogum for a drink followed by pizza at Waynesville Pizza.
Prior to heading out on Sunday, we window shopped in downtown Waynesville before ending up at Boogum for a nice Father’s Day lunch.
We were so lucky to have great weather and enjoyed having the extra relaxing time together. All and all, it was a great way to celebrate Drew’s 3rd Father’s Day and first as a father of two 🙂
I just went to North Carolina for the first time two weeks ago to see family. I was in Greenville and thought the state overall was a beautiful place. I would be more than happy to go back to hike around like you and your family did!

The heat is so intense… but I’ll be freezing in winter weather soon enough, so I better get out and enjoy the vitamin D.
