Over the holiday weekend we took a trip with our wonderful friends The Stevens' and The Pody's to Gatlinburg. We could not have asked for better weather, food or friends. EVERYTHING was just perfect! Here is a quick look at all of the fun we had.
The first day we found a little diner and store by our hotel to eat for lunch. While we were finishing up our lunch the daddy's found the perfect size buggy to cruise the little guys around in :)
This was the look I got when I told him to say "Cheese"
After our lunch we decided our first day fun would be a trip to the Ripley's Aquarium!
Daddy and Caleb ready to check out the aquarium
He loved looking around. There was so much to see :)
Looks like daddy is teaching him lots in this picture
Look at all of the fish
He loved these little peephole tanks where he could stand by himself and look in
All three kiddos checking out the stingrays
Mommy has to get a pic with little man every now and then
He normally really likes dinosaurs, but I have to admit this one was a little scary. A little too close for comfort.
Daddy and Caleb inside the tank :)
He loved this. Daddy had to pry his little fingers off the tank when it was time to leave :(

After a day at the aquarium we finished our evening with dinner at Calhoun's and a trip to the Christmas Place.
A Visit to the Christmas Place Store in Pigeon Forge
The next day we started our day off right with a big breakfast at Log Cabin and then began the journey out to Cade's Cove.
Daddy's with their boys enjoying the beautiful outdoors
Looks like these two cuties are having a serious conversation
My two favorite boys :)
Our best attempt at a family picture for the day
Admiring God's beautiful creation
These wild boys LOVED running free
He thought he was so cool riding shotgun and looking out the window.
After a day spent at Cade's Cove we enjoyed a late lunch at the Old Mill and a night of fun cruising the strip and playing games at Fanny Farkle's in downtown Gatlinburg.
Daddy won little man two balls during our fun at Fanny Farkle
On our third day, we took a morning trip to the Rainforest Zoo and had lunch at AppleBarn.
Checking out the emu with daddy
Loving being outside at the zoo
Of course, we must get a family picture at the zoo
He was amazed by the waterfall
After our fun morning at the zoo we headed to AppleBarn for lunch. Unfortunately, we had an hour and thirty minute wait. Thank goodness, there were leaves everywhere because this entertained the little kiddos during our long wait.

This was after a fall in the leaves
Finally, we ended our last night with pizza at Mellow Mushroom. Caleb, was really excited about this because pizza is his favorite.
This child LOVES pizza :)
He couldn't get is fast enough picking it up with his hands, so he decided to just gulp it up from the plate.
We had so much fun taking our little man to Gatlinburg for the first time. It is a trip full of memories that we will never forget. We are so blessed to have wonderful friends to share fun times and make memories with.
