Our vacation in Tennessee continued through Friday of this week. We adventured to Dollywood two days this year which gave us a lot more time and we found so many new things! There was an entire section full of many roller coasters we’d never been to in years past and at every single one there was literally not a line at all – Kevin was able to get right on and in every case he rode in the front seat/car. We also enjoyed some lazy days at our cabin. We enjoyed the slow pace of a couple of cabin days too. I spent a fair bit of time in front of the computer playing catch up from previous blogs that I hadn’t gotten around to posting. I enjoyed my pjs and the couch with some coffee :). We had a nice hot tub too. For our 5th Anniversary Kevin made a lovely dinner – grilled cheese and a deluxe salad along with a taquito appetizer. Life is a little different with a 6 month and 4 year old, no fancy or crazy nights out. But that is just fine by me – we’re thankful for our blessings, our marriage, and our time away.

Another first for us this year was putt-putting in downtown Gatlinburg. Griffin got a hold in one! This course is up in the hillside and overlooks the main road in Gatlinburg. I walked with Reid in the sleeper for the first course and when they wanted to play another I sat in a nice rocking chair in the sunshine while Reid slept on me. I enjoyed that!  We enjoyed more time at the Island. Griffin loved going on the adventure course this year and went on it a couple times during each of our visits.  And here are a few pics I forgot to include in the post from last week of Griffin chasing the chickens at Dixie Stampede, plus our official photos from that night. Sorry for the poor quality!

After we got home Friday night the boys hit their bed hard! I love to capture pictures of them sleeping. Reid is a tummy sleeper just like Finn. And Finn doesn’t stay in the same place very long. Every time I check on him he’s in a different position be it sideways, upside down, underneath his covers, on top of his covers, etc.
