Yesterday we went to Dollywood! We were hooked up with some free tickets...so thankful for that!!! We left around 9:00, but should have left earlier. (We loose an hour, too, when we travel east.) We got stuck in some traffic in near Pigeon Forge, but thankfully, Ryan's phone directed us around the traffic and took us a back way, which probably saved us at least an hour! We hadn't had lunch, so we decided to eat there....MISTAKE...the lines for food were all sooooooo long! We finally just decided to get ice cream. So, the kids ate ice cream, gummies, and goldfish for lunch! Ryan found some soup in the ice cream line, so he and I (and Mercy) ate soup. I thought the park itself, was really nice looking. It had bridges and streams, and was decorated well for the fall. We made it to some rides, and the kids loved every second of it. Mercy wanted to ride everything!!! She rode in one of the kiddie rides that went up in the air with Aedan and Josiah!! We rode the train, and also the merry-go-round. It is so fun to watch them on rides. Mercy rode the elephant ride with me that went way up in the air! She was dying to get on that ride the whole time! Aedan's favorite ride was the elephant one I just mentioned, and Josiah's was the tea cups! (Ryan spun them around like crazy!) My camara was doing some crazy things and messing up big time, so I didn't get lots of pictures:( But, at least I have some. Here they are:

| This is the only picutre I have of Mercy on a ride, and I am sooooooo glad I have it!!!! Here they are on the duck ride!!!! |
After we left the park we went to Fudruckers for dinner. The food was FABULOUS since we hadn't eaten much all day!!! Hopefully, we can make it back to Dollywood again at some point. The kids LOVED it and had a blast!! Next time, we'll leave earlier, and bring more snacks:)...and, I'll be getting a new sd card for my camara (today)!
