Kirsten's Post

Today we went shopping and we bought ice cream, and we bought candy for the movies. Tomorrow me and Auntie Brenda are going to see Dispicable Me. And Then when we came home from shopping the neighbor lady came over and brought cupcakes for us and treats for Buster. She felt real bad that Ryan got dragged by the dog. After we went shopping..we went shopping again. Auntie Brenda made tacos for supper and Kirsten ate 1 1/2. Then we were trying to find the movie place so we don't miss the movie. I started to eat my cupcake but it is so BIG I had to save most of it. Then after this blog thing, I am going to eat my ICE CREAM.

Trip to Dollywood

On Friday morning we went to Cracker Barrel cause Papa has to have his biscuits and gravy. Then we hopped in the car and started to drive across Tennessee to Pigeon Forge. This seems to be a very unorganized place with a lot of construction workers not doing anything. We finally arrived at our hotel!

The first thing we did was go to the pool.The pool had a blue swirly slide and then you drop into 5ft of water! Caleb went first, then Kirsten then Ryan. We kinda forgot that Kirsten can't swim in the deep water, so Granny jumped in and grabbed Kirsten and took her to the shallow water. If Granny wasn't there, Ryan was already telling Kirsten to grab onto his back. So, she was in great hands, her two brothers and her Granny were there!

We got very hungry and decided to go to the Mellow Mushroom. We recognized this restaurant cause we went there in North Carolina. It was gooooood!

Next morning we got dressed, ate breakfast and drove a couple of miles to Dollywood! Caleb says his favorite parts were - going on his first roller coaster called Thunderhead. He also had a lot fun on a yellow ride called the SlideWinder. Kirsten loved the Rough Waters when all of us could ride in one big circle raft! She got soaking wet! She was dripping! It was very funny! Ryan's favorite ride was the Mystery Mine. It was really fast and had a big loop on it and when you go down, a big fire starts to happen! We all loved the River Battle. We jumped in boats and each of us had a water cannon that we shot water at other boats and people on the outside of the ride. We all ended up soaked to the bone! Papa liked it the first time, but didn't want to go the second time. He squirted us from outside the ride!

We had a blast and it was awesome! We went back to the hotel and the pool and had leftover pizza for dinner!

Next day - Sunday, we drove home and Uncle Paul and Aunt Brenda were already at the house. We unpacked our bags and told them about our trip.

So, stay tuned - we will have more tomorrow!

Today Granny arrived at our house and big surprise!!!!! She brought Papa with her for our trip. Then we went to Casa Blanca for dinner. Everyone loved it!

We came home and mom and dad left for their cruise and we went to Wal-Mart to buy lot's of snacks for our road trip.

When we got home, Granny showed us a new game - Monopoly Express.....It is awwwwesoooome! Kirsten and Granny painted their nails to get ready for the big trip tomorrow. We are planning to leave early with our first stop at Cracker Barrel. Papa has to have his biscuits and gravy!

For this trip, we are planning to stay in good shape cause Granny brought her exercise equipment. We have already starting working on our arms - biceps and triceps.

We are getting Chipper ready for our departure by playing with him a little outside of his cage. He was so happy, he flew on top of the cabinets! Ryan rescued him....way to go Ryan!

Granny showed us Google Sky, an app on her phone. We couldn't believe that we saw two satellites and one spacestation! Dad was right - he predicted we would see them tonight!

And now we have just posted our first entry in our vacation blog! We can't wait until tomorrow....We are going to have fun on our trip!
Ryan, Caleb and Kirsten Shannon (Granny is our typist)
