TICKETS, MAY I HAVE YOUR TICKET? TICKETS PLEASE




The Christmas week at Grammie & Papaw's wouldn't be complete without a trip to Dollywood (thanks again for our wonderful birthday year!!!). You see, my parents have found a way to make sure that their grandsons come up to see them. Yep, you've got it. We all get season passes to Dollywood. Anyway. This year we went on the Saturday after Christmas. Normally it wouldn't be so bad, but The Smokey Mts. had a warm streak that weekend. It was 70 degrees at one point that afternoon. So, it became VERY crowded. In fact, it was the most crowded that we have EVER seen.
This year they introduced the Polar Express ride. It was way cool. When we got in line it was about a 2 hour wait. I couldn't get over it. If we didn't go there all the time, I probably wouldn't have waited, but since it was new, why not? Well, just as we were getting on the lady was telling us that the line had grown. The wait was now over 4 hours for the folks just getting in line. CRAZY!!!!!!! Is any ride worth that??????

I was thinking that it was perfect how HL closed right after we found the lanterns or we would have gotten into some spending trouble :) I REALLY appriciate you helping me out. Life is more fun with a buddy.

If you would like to help me...I NEED IT :) I have 5 girlfriends bringing a tray of kid food like sandwiches, cheese/crackers etc. I could use a crock pot of spegetti or mac and cheese or whatever your heart desires. So far we have about 40 kids out of the 70 rsvpers! Let me know if that would work..no stress though friend, only if you have everything and the time too!
