Gatlinburg-Day 1-2

We started out our vacation in Gatlinburg with all of Larry's family.  Well, all of his family except him. He got stuck at home running a sports camp and didn't get to join us until Friday.  The girls were so excited to share a cabin with Meemaw and all of Lesli's family.  We started out the Saturday night with the Mexican place by the Aquarium and walking around downtown.  Elye's first mission was to get a stuffed animal, which ended up being a Smokey Mountain Bear.  The next morning we set out for a hike to Grotto Falls.  Elye made it all the way up, running half the way.  I think she used up all her energy the first half of the hike because she had to be carried down the second half.  It's no good having shorty legs.  We also headed to Granny's and Papa's place at Westgate and swam in their indoor water park.

 We made it to Grotto Falls, but somehow I didn't get a picture of the actual waterfall.
