Vacation in Gatlinburg

We have been wanting to take the kids to Wilderness at the Smokies for some time now.  However, every time we have the time, we don't have the money, and vice versa.  We finally decided to just do it!  So, I called and made the reservations.  We ended up getting a BOGO free rate and spent a little less than we thought we would on the room, which was good.  We decided to use that extra money and go to Wonderworks, which is a very cool, very fun science/art oriented museum.  The day before we left for vacation, I found out that it was home school week at Wonderworks.  We got in for about half the regular admission!  That was a blessing.  We were able to take the family out to dinner with the money we saved there.  Jacob wanted to see the Titanic, so we walked around it, but did not go in.  All in all, it was a great trip.  The kids behaved very well and had a ton of fun!
