Our vacation

We had a great time in Gatlinburg over the weekend. We left Thursday about 12:30 and got down there around 6:30 since we stopped for lunch and to feed Aubrey. Thursday night we went to Bennett's to eat supper and just spent some time at the cabin. Aubrey didn't sleep well that night but other than that we settled in. Friday we went to the Aquarium, Jose's to eat, then back to the cabin so Aubrey could take her nap. She's a stinker and won't sleep in her stroller she's too interested in everything else going on. While she and the guys were napping Sheri and I went shopping in Gatlinburg. After that we made supper at the cabin then went back into Gatlinburg and went to the Ripley's museum.

Saturday we went into Pigeon Forge / Seiverville. We started out at Old McDonald's farm miniature golf then went to Applewood farmhouse restaurant for lunch then we went to the Rainforest Discovery Zoo. After that we split up the guys and Noah went to the Dinosaur museum and Knife world and the girls went to do some outlet shopping. Then we went back to the cabin and made a late supper. Sunday we packed up and headed back. Mom and dad had the dogs so they offered to bring them and supper to us which was a god send. We got to visit with them and it saved me 2 more hours of driving.

Overall we had a GREAT weekend I really wish we could have stayed another day or two there were more things we really wanted to do but didn't have time. I guess there is always next time since we go down there at least once a year.

Here are some pictures from our trip.
