Wow...breath taking!!!! Every day was just wonderful, waking up in the mountains and looking at them right out our window and balcony! Our resort was so beautiful. We had such a peaceful relaxing time. The boys just loved every minute, from hiking in the park to swimming at the water park in our resort to just taking it easy! We made every day special and exciting. We had to hit our most favorite restaurants...The Pancake Pantry and Bennett's BBQ! The best fudge around comes from the Smokies! Yes, the Pancake Pantry has amazing pancakes!!!! I always have the blueberry and Marc loves the chocolate chip. Grayson got bear shaped pancakes and Rogan loves the blueberry too. I remember going there when I was younger with my parents. It is truly a tradition! We were even lucky enough to see a black baby bear crossing the street in the park. I am sure it's mother was close behind but we did not see her.
We took the boys to this great Aquarium located in Gatlinburg. Grayson and Rogan had so much fun! The sharks were huge as were the sting rays. The boys actually pet the sting rays while they were being fed. Grayson and Marc went to a car museum and saw Herbie (the actual car) and Kit from Knight Rider just to name a few. They also saw the General Lee from Dukes of Hazard! Wow!!! The ride down there was good. The boys did really well!! :) Rogan did better than when we took Grayson to the Ozark Mountains when he was Rogan's age and we thought he did good! It was better than our flying adventure. When the week was over, we were all sad to leave. I told Marc, I enjoyed staying in the mountains in Gatlinburg more than our trip to Disney. It was just so peaceful. Don't get me wrong, we love Mickey and Disney but we needed a vacation after that vacation. We are still counting down for May when we return to Disney. I am sure flying will be even better now that Rogan will be two this time around. I hope you all enjoy the pictures. Our vacation was just amazing. Tennessee I could call home! We can't wait to return next fall.
