We were so excited about our summer vacation that we loaded down our vehicle and took off as soon as school let out. If you remember my earlier posts, we took a trip to the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area. My husband and I were married in Gatlinburg 12 years ago this September and we have been trying to get back there as often as we can. The boys love it and we even considered moving there at one time, although our family and friends are here, and so is my husband’s job.
If you have been reading my blog much you probably already know that my husband sometimes has to travel with his job. Because he isn’t always home with the us we try to take advantage of any little weekend getaways we can get. We have awesome family that come and stay at our house with our pets any time we want to get away (which isn’t often, but does happen on occasion.) This week my husband will be traveling to a nearby state (within 5 hours of home) so we are thinking about tagging along with him. I have to admit that I’m pretty excited about getting away one last time before school starts, however I have no idea what sort of kid’s activities I am going to be able to find to keep the boys occupied while my husband is working during the day. I can just see myself sitting in a hotel room with 5 boys, and all I can think is crazy chaos! Maybe we will venture out to a zoo or children’s museum or something?
What sort of activities do you like to do with your kids?
If we go, the trip will be in just a couple of days, so I’m looking for any ideas anyone can think of!
Thanks in advance!
