Gatlinburg in Pictures

Back in October, we took Gus (and Buttercup) to Gatlinburg to have a little mini vacation and to see the changing of the leaves! We had a wonderful time and Gus really enjoyed himself so much so that any time we are in the car and he sees the sign for the hotel we stayed in (which had orange comforters) he makes sure to tell us in an asking voice, "Orange Bed?" It is the cutest thing and we just chuckle and get a kick out of it every time!

He rode go-karts with Jake and I for the first time and he has been asking everyday since we are home to go ride "co-karts" so I an thinking we will be heading to the local go-kart track in the near future! Well, once it warms up a bit!

I apologize for the overload of pictures, but we had such a great time and took so many great pictures that I have to share them!!

Wild Woody...Gus' first go-kart track! It was Wild and Woody alright!

All buckled up and ready to go!

Holding Mommy's hand tight, tight!

This is just after we passed a Chick-fil-A and we can hear him whispering, "Cow House, Cow House"! It is safe to say the Chick-fil-A is his favorite place to eat! Who can blame him!

I do believe Gus got the biggest kick out of this dog on the motorbike! We all laughed out loud when we saw it and Jake had to drive right next to them so Gus could continue to laugh!!

Taking the gondola up the mountain to ride the Alpine Sled down!

Weeeeee!

Back to the Track for some more go-karts and airplane rides before heading home!

What a wonderful weekend we all had.....Gus and his sollipop just couldn't go any longer!!

Not our own block party!

Before you jump to any conclusions, NO WE DID NOT CRASH ANY OLD BLOCK PARTY BECAUSE THEY HAD A BOUNCE HOUSE! We were invited and we did bring red velvet brownies! Our friends live across the street from one an other and invited us so that Gus could play with his friends and we could visit with our friends. It was a win win situation! As we turned on the street Gus new where we were and began asking to go to Endi's house and to Siena's (as Gus pronounces it SIGH-EEENA) house. He was very excited to see his friends and there was no hesitation to take his shoes off and bounce on in the bounce house! He is getting to be such a big boy! The kids had a blast and did not stop until they literally dropped! I remember those days as a kid and how much I enjoyed going and going and going and how rewarding the crash was when it finally hit!

Here is Gus all smiles in the bounce house :-)

Collecting a few leaves for the bed of the kid size tractor that goes at adult speeds!

Sweet Simone and Endi in the bed of the above mentioned tractor!

Now it is Gus and Endi's turn!

Sweet Siena giving Gus and Endi a ride! She was a great driver and was able to maneuver that thing around the sign and back down the street. I am not so sure some adults can drive as good as this 4 year old!
