Vacation to Tennessee!

BJ was learning how to take pictures.

Seriously, the dirt bikes at Cade's Cove had to be the highlight of BJ's trip! :)

Look everyone! BJ has a halfway normal smile going on!!! :)

Aannnddd, there went the normal smile...

No, this isn't posed... I just have some very photogenic siblings! :)

Lunch break!! Cold pizza anyone?

Tripod pictures aren't the best... But we DO have proof that we were ALL there! :)

sister picture!

We stopped at this beautiful place on the way home... It was Daddy's birthday, so I had to celebrate somehow!! ;)

I.love.mountains.

We were pleased to meet {part of} the Bates family and visit their church Sunday! Thanks to Bro. Gil,  Michael, Allyssa, and Katie for making us feel right at home! :)

This is a picture of the slides from the indoor waterpark that was where we stayed! (Our grandparents have a time share for a condo, so we got to take a "free" vacation! :D That place was AMAZING!!!

Penguins are adorable when they are faking sleep! :)

I'm not sure what this thing is, but it looked cool! :)

We loved getting to visit the Ripley's aquarium...

Look!! It's Nemo! :) 

I'm fairly sure that Dad had this same look when he realized he had to load MORE stuff into the already full van. :)

This thing was swimming over my head... And I didn't even scream! :)
