First Trip to Dollywood of the Season


Last Friday and Saturday were spent in Dollywood. We love to go to Dollywood, because there is a great variety of rides for all of us. The tulips and trees were beautiful through-out the park.

A newer ride that all of us could ride together is called River Battle. Now, I don't like to get wet but I was talked into riding this because all of this could ride together. I didn't get too wet, but there was a man standing on the side with a water gun pointed directly at me. The kids loved it! It was nice to all ride together...
Here is Faith, after the ride, aiming a water gun at another family.

The other rides that we could ride together were, Blazing Fury, which Faith did not like. The whole time she was crying and saying - "I want to get off, I want to get off" Hannah Grace jumped off the ride saying - "That was awesome, can we do that again?"

The other ride was, Mountain Slidewinder. After the longgggg walk to the top they made the five of us step on a scale to make sure we didn't go over the weight limit for one boat. Thankfully we didn't got over the limit and it was a fun ride for all of us.

One of Samuel's favorite rides is Tennessee Tornado. You can't see Samuel, but Travis is waving as they take off.

Here they are going up-side-down.

And, here they are coming around one of the loops. You can see they close the front of the picture, Travis has on a orange Clemson shirt one.

Another one of Samuel's favorite rides is Thumderhead. I road it first with Samuel and then on Saturday morning, Travis road it with him. It is a great roller coaster!


While Samuel was riding rides, the girls were able to play at Lil' Loggers' Landing.


Our last ride for our trip to Dollywood was Faith's pick, the Village Carousel.


Thanks again to Grammy and Big Daddy for our Christmas gift and we look forward to using it again soon.

I will do another post with pictures from the rest of the week-end.
