Tennesse

We drove up to the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee on Thursday to stay in a cabin for the weekend. The kids did great in the car despite being in the car for so long a couple days before.

Steak n' Shake on our way. Carson loves ketchup!

Grandma, Carson and Aunt Katie at the cabin.

Our cabin for the weekend. 


This air hockey table was always being played when we were home. 


But our main reason to take a trip up there was to go to Dollywood! I've heard good things about it so it was fun to finally go and see what it is all about. We all had a great time! Kids still talk about going back soon. Thanks Grandma Jo and Papa Lars for a great day/weekend!!








Brian and Kaitlyn were the perfect pair for the crazy coasters!






I think this was everyone's favorite ride! And of course we didn't find it until the end of the day. We were soaked from head to toe but we all had a blast! There were other boats out there that you would shoot with your water guns and people standing on the sides shooting you. There was some old guy there creaming everyone that came by. It was hilarious! 


This was our first ride through and Brian sat with all of our stuff. The kids and Brian went together and we soaked them from the side! 

It was a great day and we can't wait to go back again!!

And then on our way back to AL.....
Ugh! Not even 30 min from our cabin and we have to pull over because we can hear something hitting our car. Brian opens the door and we can hear air coming out. Oh Crap! The hole was too big to fix it ourselves so we had to put on our spare and go find a tire shop. The tire shop guy was able to fix it and we were on the road again...well for about an hour! We had to pull off again and get the tire balanced because the car was shaking so bad. But we finally made it back to Mom and Lars' house. 

And we were able to find our Tennessee sign! We are still searching for an Alabama sign where we don't have to get out of the car on the interstate.
