our trip to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge

I guess I forgot to blog about our trip to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg. It was a great little trip. I was pleasantly surprised at all the things to see and do there. So much that we are planning on going back again over the summer...if we can fit it in...

We have been VERY busy. Ken started his new job with Bosch right after our trip and has been working a lot of hours...but he has a great boss and works with some great guys. He is not used to working for a company at the top, so it's got it's blessings and it's curses. We have had to adjust to him not being around as much--not to mention he was Toby's soccer coach...and Caleb played on another team...(sorry about the underline-I'm not sure how to get rid of it)
We got to swim almost everyday.

Nothing Sweeter than a sleeping baby.

okay a sleeping 3 year old is pretty sweet too! He fell asleep on the train!

We rode on the train all over Dollywood. The lines were crazy long. The train was one of the few rides that could handle the crowds.

We went to Dollywood and Leisel rode her first Carosel.

We had fun on this ride...Toby got the wettest. He was a good sport about it though.

I just thought this house was the cutest.

We did a lot of things in Pigeon Forge. Caleb and Toby got to go up on stage at the Comedy Barn. This was a show they have there. Very family friendly and GOOD.

We also went on a hike that totaled 2.5 miles. It was up hill and down again. Caleb did awesome, He fell near the end. On the trail there were signs that said "be careful: people have fallen to their deaths!" luckily we made it out alive! Toby did whine the whole time. See how happy they are at the end? (Sarcasm) It was really hot that day too.
It's hard to keep boys out of trees.
