Smokey Mountain High

Okay, I know the song is "Rocky Mountain High" but we hit the Smokey's this weekend.  The Scalas took Gatlinburg, TN by storm, seeing all the sights.  We left Friday and after checking into our hotel we took advantage of the hotel pool and neighboring mini golf course.  
On Saturday, we woke up bright and early and ventured to Dollywood.  The boys loved every minute of the theme park.  They were able to ride more rides this year as they were a little taller.  We did make the mistake of putting Myles on the log ride.  When the ride stopped his tears started flowing.  Scared him to death.....epic parenting fail.  
On Sunday, we went to the aquarium.  I think this was their favorite stop as they are "science guys" (according to Grady).  
We are back home safe and sound.  I have a feeling bed time is going to be a cinch tonight.  


Our hotel had a great outdoor pool.  Check out G's moves off the water slide.  He couldn't get enough of it.


Dad and Myles enjoying the fountains.


Mom and Dad resting after 18 holes of mini golf.  Nice photo, Grady.  He's becoming quite the photographer.

He just looks like trouble.


I love when I have two snugly, sleepy boys.  It doesnt' happen too often.


We arrived at Dollywood.

Back at the hotel.  We enjoyed the hot tub and indoor pool after walking around Dollywood.

Grady's favorite exhibit was the coconut crab.

Myles loved the penguins.
