24 Hours in Gatlinburg

The day after Christmas the rest of the family left for Gatlinburg.  We had originally planned to stay in Birmingham given that I had to go back to work in two days.  However, I hated to have family so close yet not get to see them ... so we loaded up the car for a last-minute trip!  Even though our time in Gatlinburg was short, we had a great time seeing everyone.

 Once we got home from breakfast, we sat around for about five minutes before deciding to go to Gatlinburg.  Charlotte watching us race around the house to get packed

Although we wish we could have stayed longer, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and are so glad we made the trip!
