Water Day at Dollywood

Our first day at Dollywood was a half day. If you go after 3pm, you get in free the next day. So we went Monday afternoon after 3 and came prepared to just do water rides. It was super hot, so the cold water felt great! (I can't get these pictures in the right order on this computer, so we're gonna have to work in reverse order.)

Kathryn and Chris with Ella Kate. Amelia stayed at the cabin with Uncle Joe on this day.

Our crew. This was the end of the day, about 6pm, so they were tired. It was so much fun though!
We found this kiddie area for them to play in, which is a lot like our spray parks here. This allowed the adults (well, all but me) to ride the newest ride there. Pretty smart to put a kiddie play area right next to it!




Chase and the girls. He wasn't complaining.
Everyone except me and Parker got to ride this ride. I did the same thing two years ago, waited with the babies. The babies back then were JuJu and Ella Kate though!

When we arrived at the park that day, we found out that our plan to come the next day, Tuesday, wasn't gonna happen because the park was going to be closed that day! So we had to rearrange our plans a bit. We ended up hiking in the mountains on Tuesday and then doing the rest of Dollywood on Wednesday, the day we had to drive back. Whew! Glad that worked out.

More is coming.......
