We just got home from a fun vacation in the Smoky Mountains of Tennesee with the Lynch family. We stayed in a cabin on top of a mountain in Gatlinburg. You can see our view from the back porch in the picture above. Gary, Kay, Adam, Ketrin, Noah, Chesley, Jason, Kaylin, Josh, myself and Evan were all there. We left Thursday morning. On Friday, the girls went shopping at the outlet mall in Pigeon Forge. On Saturday morning, we went to the Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies . Evan had a great time. His favorite part was when the scuba diver was in the tank full of sharks and sting rays. He also got to touch a horseshoe crab and see fish that looked like Nemo. He came home with a new favorite toy, a stuffed shark. That afternoon, we got a visit from some black bears - see the pictures in the posts below. There was a momma bear and three baby bears. They got into the garbage and had a little feast! They got very close to the front porch. Evan waved at them and talked to them. The next day he said that the baby bears played with his toy and his sandbox and that the momma bear sat in the rocking chair and watched them. Later that day we went to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and played in a creek. On Sunday, we spent the day at Dollywood. Evan had so much fun riding the rides. His favorite ride was the Smoky Mountain River Rampage that he rode twice!! He came home with his second new favorite toy, a snake! We had a great time being with all of the family and we were sad to come home today. It was a great trip!!
I'll post more pictures when I get some from the other family members (we forgot our camera)!
