Trip to the Smokies

The weekend before Christmas, we took a trip to the Smokies with Papa, Nana, Randy, Danna, Hillary and Hannah to celebrate the holidays a little differently this year. We really enjoyed it after we had to alter our plans a little...it snowed a good bit the first night and we couldn't make it to the cabin we were going to stay at. After a overnight stay at a hotel in Piegon Forge, we made it to our cabin the next morning.

It was hard to get a good view of the front of the cabin because it was kind of hidden in the trees, but if you look closely you'll see our beautiful cabin.

Unfortunately, Jackson got sick right after we got there, so he didn't get to go out to enjoy playing in all the snow with the big kids! He got the first ever trip to the doctor while on vacation our family has ever had to have. After getting some antibiotics for double ear infections, he started feeling better.

Noah and Hillary built a little snowman right outside the cabin.

The finished product- not sure exactly what they ended up using for the eyes, nose, and mouth...I think maybe peanut M&Ms were the buttons!



A little bit of a better view of the front of the cabin.

A snowball fight broke out between Hillary and Noah!

They had so much fun playing in the snow! I think this was the most snow Noah had ever had to play in.

Looks like he loved his snowball fight!

A very pretty view from the cabin...all the trees and mountain tops covered in snow were so beautiful!
