For the Birds

When life hands you lemons....you pack up your bags at the last minute and get the heck outta Dodge.  Or, in this case, down to Pigeon Forge.  Sometimes you just need a change of scenery, and that is just what we did last week with no planning whatsoever.  Thursday evening, we tossed some clothes in a bag and spent 2 nights in Tennessee.

...annnddd...made a stop at Parrot Mountain.  We've never been there.  A little out of my non-bird-liking comfort zone, but the kids were mildly entertained by it.  (Until Ben got tired of walking around on the side of a mountain, that is.)

Not exactly the relaxing getaway we were looking for, but it was two days spent not doing laundry or cleaning bathrooms...so, victory!
