Quick turn and then gone again!

Well as most of you know we had a chance to take a quick trip to Gatlinburg. The kids and I went with mom, My aunt and uncle and my cousin, her hubby and her two kids. We had a wonderful time. I drove the "old car" my kids and my mom aunt and uncle. I drove all of those bladders to Gatlinburg (Over 3 hour trip) without a stop! We made it there in record time! On Tuesday we went to Dollywood. I managed to fall out of Dolly Parton's tour bus. That provided chuckles for everyone and a couple of nice bruises for me. John and I rode every roller coaster they had to offer. We rode a REAL Coal powered train from 1892! That was really neat! Then on Weds we headed into the Smokey Mountain National Park. We had wanted to hike a bit but it was rainy and overcast so we did the riding tour. I gained the name Danika Summar from my uncle~ he was always wondering where the fire was. But we had the BEST treat. We came upon a mommy beat and her 2 baby bears. They were all in a tree. The babies came down and mom stayed, stating: "You kids bare with me a moment, I can barely get out of this tree." I am funny I know. But what a treat! On Thursday, it was time to shop, come home and recoup!

Today, I spent the day running errands, arguing with two kids, and packing for our trip to Starkeville MS. That's right 24 hours ago, I was not home and 24 hours from now I will be not home again. Both on trips both with kids. This trip we will have Nathan and Uncle Glen. Uncle Glen is an old friend of Nathan's that is a Vandy Alum. He is single, and has no kids. After this trip, I am certain that he will remain that way.

We will be home on Sunday. Then I am in for another full week of fall break! Pray for us!

I hope to put a slide show of our trip together soon! My floors are wonderful and stinky. My house is still packed in milk crates. Off we go~ when I get home to unpack no one knows.
