Dollywood


Last week we went to Dollywood! Daddy, Mommy, Eddie, Grandma June and Nana Murphy rented a mini-van (I SOOOO want one)and drove to Pigeon Forge. It was awesome. A bit windy at times but a beautiful day. It was The Festval of Nations and this month they were celebrating Ireland. We saw Irish crafts, shopped in little Irish boutiques (Nana Murphy bought Eddie an adorable Irish knit hat for next winter) and saw a step dancing show. Good fun. Grandma June, Mommy and Daddy got to ride the new MYSTERY MINE roller coaster. It was very cool. Nana Murphy and Eddie waited for us
since neither of them could handle the ride!It was a long day but totally worth it. Ed and I bought season passes so we can go back at Christmas with Eddie.

Stopping for some ice cream. yum....

These showers actually work but it was a bit chilly and we had already taken a shower that morning (tee-hee).

A coffin on our way to ride the new roller coaster...it wasn't enough to scare us though!!
