Mountain getaway....

The day after Christmas we all packed up and headed to the Smokies.

We planned the trip last minute. 

Which I don't recommend as we almost couldn't find a cabin (especially one pet friendly).

However, we got lucky and found the perfect place for all of us to stay...including Pilot!

The location could not have been any better and the creek running along the side was well worth the search.

I'm not going to lie though...the inside was outdated and felt a little cluttered.

Fortunately the kids could care less.

The mountain, creek, fire pit, and hot tub in the backyard was all they cared about.

We only stayed two nights. So we didn't have time to do a whole lot, but we did manage to go to the Ripley's Aquarium.

It was crowded (thanks to the rain) , but fun and the kids enjoyed it.

after that we took the kids to the arcade for some games.

Avery and Dawson both hit the jack-pot!! ; )

This was Pilot's first trip with us.

He did great and loved curling up by the fire with us at night.

So there was our getaway.

Enjoy your weekend!
