Spring Break

Even though my Spring Break days are long over, we still acted like we had one and took a long weekend getaway to Gatlinburg,

First up...Dollywood.

It was opening day and was a wee bit crowded but we were still able to do everything we wanted to.

Fulton loved all of the kid sized rides too!

We overheard a few people talking about the parade which we had heard nothing about.  Turns out Dolly, herself, was actually in the parade.  So we staked out our spot to get a good glimpse of her.

After going to Dollywood over 25 years of my life we have never seen her, so this was a nice little surprise!

Nothing like sitting your camera on top of the garbage can to get a group picture :)

We had perfect weather for Dollywood...the next day not so much.  It was rainy and cold.

So we checked out one of the local arcade and wasted donated some of our money to their facilities.  We all pooled our winnings together for Fulton a cheap little plastic toy.  

someone was loving their dessert after lunch

The rain finally tapered off, so we stopped at a park for some fun.

These two are having a serious discussion right here...probably about trains, cars or tractors if I had to guess.

We headed home the next day.  I think it is safe to say this little guy was worn out.
