Dollywood

Last week we were thrilled to be able to spend a day with some long time friends who were up here vacationing from Memphis. We met up with them at Dollywood on Tuesday and enjoyed spending the whole day with them. Our kids had a wonderful time together and acted like they had been best friends for ever when in fact they have only meet each other a few times and never have spent more than a few hours total together :) That is kids for you though. I have known Jennifer and John all my life, we grew up going to school and church together. Kaitlyn and Taylor are 6 months apart as are Kyle and Caleb. If she only had one that was Madison's age it would be perfect but Madison enjoyed playing with Susan and Shane's little girl Jade who is almost 3 (we last saw Jade when she was only a few weeks old and they came up here for a UT football game). Anyway here are a few pictures from our day together, I wish I had more but our camera acted up on us and froze up....luckily Matt got it working once we were home but we missed out on some cute shots. They will just have to come back so we can re-enact the day, hint hint Jennifer :)

Taylor shooting people with water guns on the River Battle ride


Caleb, Kyle and John having a blast shooting people


Madison was trying to do what the bigger kids but wasn't quite big enough :)


Trying to get a photo of all the kids....it didn't work to well :)


The Little Loggers area is one of the kids favorite places to cool off by playing in the water.







Enjoying cooling off in Dolly's Imagination Forest

You've done more Dollywood posts than anyone I know! Wow! I guess there's always something different going on there, though! Fun!
