Free Saturday

Cooper's soccer game was cancelled due to all the rain we've had lately, but lucky for us it turned out to be a beautiful day.  We took advantage of the weather and headed to Dollywood for the day.  
ready for fun!
I've decided my arms are too short to get a good photo of all of us!

This was Reagan's first "big" coaster and she did great!

You know it's a good day when this is the scene 5 minutes after pulling out of the parking lot!

Saturday Fun

As usual, another busy Saturday for the family.
The day started with Cooper's soccer game
Cooper played hard, but his team lost.
 After the soccer game, Cooper and I headed to Dollywood to ride a few coasters!

 Meanwhile, Reagan and Greg stayed home and went to the movies.  They saw Dolphin Tale 2

 I asked some teenager to take our picture...she didn't seem real thrilled, but at least she did it!
What a fun but tiring day!

Christmas Lights at Dollywood

We're still making good use of our season passes to Dollywood that we received for Christmas last year.  We went to Dollywood tonight to see all of the lights.  It was cold, but we were bundled up! Reagan kept commenting just how beautiful the lights were and she thanked us over and over for bringing her.  Cooper was so excited, he was a wild-man!
Merry Christmas!
 mom & Cooper - Reagan was not in a picture taking mood
 I love to see trees with lights on every branch
 we watched a mini parade - I actually thought it would be more elaborate, but the kids enjoyed it!

 strong dad!
 
I forgot to take a picture of Snowflake this morning, but he was just asleep on the couch covered up with a washcloth that he was using for a small blanket - I guess all the going back and forth to the North Pole every night is catching up with him!
