Spring Break





There wasn't much going on around the farm this past weekend. We made a last minute trip to Pigeon Forge for the start of Spring Break. The kids were ecstatic with the surprise. We drove up Friday night, checked into our hotel, and went to bed. We woke up early Saturday morning, had breakfast and headed to Dollywood. We spent the entire day walking, riding, eating, walking some more, eating some more, and riding some more. All of the kids (and mom and dad) had a blast. Little Miss loved riding all of the kiddie rides. We were exhausted at the end of the day, but promised the kids we would take them to the indoor water park at our hotel. They swam and rode the water slides over and over :) Finally we cleaned up and went to bed....YAY!!!!! Sunday morning we had a lovely breakfast, did some gem mining, played laser tag and began our JOURNEY home. We went through the Nantahala National Forest and stopped numerous times to investigate scenery, old grist mills, old homesteads and the like. We knew we were heading home to some bad weather in North Georgia. Monday morning we awoke to SNOW and it was steady coming down. Did I mention it was 73 degrees in Tennessee. Don't you love spring weather?!?!?!
