My hubby, Skip; my youngest daughter; Gretchen and two of my seven grandchildren, Alex and Rachael and I went to the Biltmore Estates today to take a walk on the grounds and to see the big tree in the house.Gretchen's hubby and my son-in law was working and missed the day. We missed you Ben. It was beautiful as always and we checked a few of the rooms with many more decorated trees. Then off we went to explore and enjoy the beautiful weather. We had so much fun in the garden and of course I found many Kodak moments. Then we were off to the farm and of course we played with the animals. The goats are such a hoot and the horses beautiful. It is also a real treat to watch the really little ones in wonder over being so close to the farm animals. After this we went to the barn and play area. Rachael learned how to make a corn husk doll like the old days and Alex shucked corn and helped pop it the old fashion way. It is such a neat place to visit. PS The adults get seasons passes and then the kids are free so we try to go once a month.. After some time of listening to the hoe down and watching the children visit Santa we wereon  our way home. I love these moments….
