Gatlinburg!

Look at all those teeth!
This is us eating at a restaurant in Gatlinburg, on Robby and I's 5 anniversary! Clara was cracking us, and herself up by playing with me through the little window in her nursing cover! See, no wedding band! We hadn't noticed that it was gone at this point though..... Robby, Clara, and I spent the Friday through Sunday after Christmas in Gatlinburg. We went there to celebrate our 5th year of marriage! The powers that be say that we were supposed to give each other something wood, so we got a cabin in the hillside above the main strip. It was within walking distance and was just perfect! The layout of the place was so bizarre. When you walked in the room your bed was on the left, a fireplace was in front of you with a tv hanging over it and in the right corner of the same room was your tub/jacuzzi! Then to the right of the front door was the kitchen stove, fridge, and sink to the bathroom! The only thing in a separate room from everything else was a toilet! It was the strangest thing I have ever seen! But it was so clean and very nice to be away from the noise at night. Pigeon Forge has gotten huge, it looked like Panama City! I swear, I had forgotten that Gatlinburg was the youth group capitol of the world! There must have been 300 teens and preteens there, and it had to be 70 degrees outside! We laughed and walked around and just had fun, and Clara was excited to be "on the road again"! Sadly, Robby noticed that his wedding band was gone about half way through the trip.... we haven't been able to find it, but are hoping that it turns up somewhere! He has it on in the pictures from Christmas, but doesn't have it on in the pictures from Gatlinburg........... we have no idea where he lost it!
