The Great Smokey Mtns

We decided to do a little traveling over Labor Day wknd. We headed off to the Great Smokey Mtns. It wasn't a bad drive and Bryce did well, he enjoyed Daddy sitting in the back with him. The cooler temps were awesome along with some fun exploring. The first day we spent at a water park. Bryce finally got so tired he asked me to hold him while Brian had gone to get us some lunch. A few minutes later he was fast asleep, for about 45 min to an hr. Which to most parents that wouldn't be a big deal, our kid sleeps great, but he needs his bed. So we were thrilled! The next day we had a big breakfast and hit the road to the National Park for some hiking. We drove all the way through the park and then went to Atlanta to visit Aunt Monica for a few days.

Bryce loved the water park! He learned quickly about the alarms that went off to start the wave pool, or dump large buckets of water into play areas. We found this area later in the day and he was thrilled that Daddy could lift him up to the goal.

Hike one of the day Bryce slept all the way up and down...ahhh the comfy BOB with good shocks helped!

Momma loves Bear Hugs!
Half to have a picture of this snack......how much longer do you think he will still like broccoli? This was after he ran down the hill, forgot to put his hands out when he fell and caught his cheek on the sidewalk....he couldn't land in the grass
At the top of Hike two. Bryce was all about hiking on this one and would walk off the path and say Momma, Dadda Bryce going hiking.

He did finally get a little tired and enjoyed a ride from Daddy.

Enjoyed some pool time at Aunt Monica's. I love to fly high and at 32 lbs Daddy may no be able to do this to me next Summer

Aunt Monica is teaching me how to blow bubbles.

Thanks Aunt Monica for a great weekend!
