Gatlinburg part 2!

I know this is a late post but thanks to a very dead camera I was unable to get my photos from the camera. I was finally able to put the disk in my printer and move the pics to my laptop! My camera on the other hand is still dead. I guess that it has a max of 1 million pictures and I reached that while we were on vacation! I guess Jaden will finally get a break from all the flashing lights!

So back to Gatlinburg....
On Thursday night we went to The Dixie Stampede. I was worried that Jaden would not be interested in the least but she loved it. They would not let you take pictures while you were in there because they wanted you to buy theirs! I did snap two picks while we were waiting though!

My parents left Friday to head back to Mississippi because my grandfather was in the hospital and not doing well. Jaden was not a happy camper when she woke up and her Nana and Papaw were gone. We decided we would walk around Gatlinburg for the day. We ate at Bubba Gump's which was very good!

After lunch we took the tram to Ober Gatlinburg. We finally got to see some black bears while we were up there!







After a three hour nap we decided to go and fill Jaden's closet for the fall. I love the outlet malls! We also got to eat at my favorite place Zaxby's! Can't believe I didn't take pics!
On our final day Rusty talked me into going to the airplane museum. He just knew Jaden would love it. Yhea right!



After 10 minutes Jaden was bored to death so I decided to let her practice learning how to walk the line. Hopefully she will not need this trade later in life but she was pretty good at it!


After a fun filled hour at the museum it was off to shop for Christmas ornaments and eat lunch!
While we were eating lunch the princess got in trouble for something and me being the paparrazi that I am took pictures of her disbelief at being told no! She is such a drama queen!




While we were shopping Jaden actually asked me to take her picture with a bear statue. I was mighty happy to oblige!



We decided we would go to the waterpark one more time before we left. Once again Jaden loved it!




We finally finished up our vacation by going to dinner and ice cream!






So now we are back home from vacation and back in the real world. We have had a busy fun filled summer and I cant believe that I am already washing Jaden's fall clothes! I guess the snow will be here before I know it! Ughh!

Gatlinburg Part 1!

We are in the middle of our little Gatlinburg vacation and boy am I tired! We have had a busy few days and Jaden has been running non-stop. My parents now see what I mean when I say that she never stops! She is running them both ragged!
When we got here the first thing we did was take her to the waterpark in the resort we are staying at. She loved it!




The next day it was shopping, eating, water park, shopping and more eating! Daddy snuck in a race car ride during this time where he dominated the track. We keep hearing about this over and over!








On Tuesday we headed to Cade's cove for some bear sightings. Unfortunatly the only thing we saw were turkeys and horses!









Yesterday we headed to Dollywood for some good ole fun! Once again Jaden had a great time and wore us out. Afterwards we headed to the pool!








And finally this morning we went to the deer farm and exotic petting zoo! Jaden had the best time here and if your kids love animals I HIGHLY recommend it!












Tonight we are heading to the Dixie Stampede for some food and fun!

Tomorrow my parent's are heading back to Mississippi early because my grandfather is in the hospital and not doing well. We pray he gets better soon. I know Jaden is going to go through some major withdrawals when my parents leave. We will have to keep ourselves busy these next few days here!
