Dollywood (TN Trip - Day 3)

The main attraction for this inspired Tennessee Trip was to visit Dollywood!
We got there early and had good parking but still rode our first ride in (the tram).
Lots of fun things to see and play around with along the way. 
Since we were so early, we had a little time to wait before entering the park once we got there.  We enjoyed some fun pictures opts to pass the time.
So much Dolly love...
We started out with a mini coaster to see how the crew would handle it!
Some were more entertained by it than others 😂...
Spinning acorn ride and these two often like to buddy up.
My buddy and I regretted our decision to go on it as well, as we both felt queasy from it.
Zoe is up for almost all the rides, and usually someone will go with her. Poppy and Shiloh were up for this one. 
One of Ezra's favorite rides!
Such a fun indoor playground!
The kids even tried out some of the smaller rides, since there is not a wait and had fun with it...
or were dramatic about it.
The bear ride we did as a joke....
Even my mom got in on the fun.
Water break...
Rafting where the threat of getting wet made for some interesting pictures...
and a lot of laughes!
Poppy getting into it!
One of the most exciting things of the day (at least for me) was the bubble show!
The lights and so many bubbles all around was magical.  Ezra learned quickly, though, not to attempt to eat them.
Gazillion Bubble show is recommended from all of us!
Another Ezra favorite....driving ride.
Zoe handled it!
We had a little bit of a wait for the train.
All aboard.
Protecting those eyes from the flying coal.
Poppy and his napping anywhere skills.
So many photo opts...
My ride buddy.
I will pass now on all things spinning!
Perhaps Shiloh should have as well...
Daddy was a great sport in going on this scary one!
When they realize that the littlest of rides are not that thrilling....
Old school bumper cart action....
I had done something to my back while waiting in line, so I was nervous to take this on but didn't want to miss it!
When the aunt goes on the scary ride with you....
Poppy got drenched on a water ride!
It was really neat that we could get so close to the bald eagles.
While the others rode more rides, I took MANY pictures of these two...
but ended up with a keeper!
There has been a lot of sibling rivalry lately, so seeing how they got along so well on this trip was such a blessing.
Special treat to share...
Night topped off with the huge crowd and fireworks....
with a cool drone show!
Dollywood, we captured as much as we could from you and it was a pleasure!
