Ok, so I know how people are about other peoples vacation pictures…ugh…she is actually posting them…well, I am going to be one of those people too….I had fun and took some beautiful pictures of the Smokie Mountains…lol. This first one is Me on our first day in Tennesee…we stopped on the side of road and saw this beautiful view.

And here is Pete and Amanda and Jacob and I:

We had such a good time stopping along the side of the road
and seeing all the beauty of the mountains. We even
got to see a mama bear and her cubs in the wild.
I didnt get a good shot of her, but here is what I did get:

I will also post a few more at the end of this post if you decide you want to take some time and look at them.
We took the kids to the Ripley Aquarium, which was a lot of fun too. We got to visit alot of little shops and and eat a lot of good food, which I have already regretted…lol. Then we came home and dropped Amanda and Jake off and went out to Owensboro to visit with my oldest daughter Stacey and her husband Dennis and my youngest grandson William. We had a very good time there also and I took some good pictures and we did a bit of shopping and ate lunch with Stacey and the William.
So we had a great time as I said, but I am glad to be home in my own bed again…lol.
Well as I have alot of posting to do and pictures to upload, I will get off of here…have a great day! hugs to you, Grammy Laurie
