Cute Little Diggers

Pisgah Forest Vacation... Part 2

Tony, Jillian, Billy, Josh, LuAnne, Eddie, and Angela.

Crazy faces!

Doesn't this look like mischief in the making at the entrance to Dollywood?

We went to Dollywoood with Erin and Maggie.

The boys loved the Dollywood Express and the merry-go-round.

Fighting in my lap!

See that blue rollercoaster?  At one point LuAnne watched the kids while I got to go ride it with Jillian, Josh, Tony, and Maggie's mom, Amanda.  It was FANTASTIC!  It was either one of the best, wildest roller coasters I've ever ridden, or I was just having so much fun that it felt that way!

Picturesque steam engine.

The kids entertained themselves during out roller coaster ride by firing water cannons at the River Battle riders. 

The little cars were so much fun.  Billy drove me and Eddie drove Jillian.

The boys rode their first roller coaster and immediately ran around and got back in line for it.  We rode it 3 times in a row and Billy did not want to quit, even though the park was closing.  They both had their hands in the air and were screaming like maniacs!  They're going to be some amusement park riders, I think.

If you ask Eddie what his favorite part of the trip was, he'll tell you "Wild Bear Falls!  Can we go back there???"  It was an indoor water park outside of Gatlinburg.

Lulu took lots of pictures of us from the upper level.

Maggie and Eddie were the perfect buddies!

We were so tired when we got back to Lulu's that the boys just laid in bed and watched Toy Story until they crashed.

We went to Toys R Us on the last day.  Eddie ended up with a 12-pack of insects encased in little acrylic blocks.  When we connected at DFW, he left two of them on the toilet paper dispenser in the restroom and we had to go tearing back through the airport to retrieve them as our plane was boarding.  Luckily, they were right where he left him.  I guess no one else wanted a flower beetle or a scorpion!
