2015 Summer Vacation ~ Day 7 ~ Pennsylvania

We spent the day at the lake with my brother, Greg, and his two adorable kids, Jack and Grace.

See?!?!?! Grace is adorable, isn't she?!?!?

Jack & Grace ~ They're too stinkin' cute for their own good!

Jack's got his goggles on and he's ready to swim!

Later that evening, we took the kids to an outdoor movie theater to see The Minions. It was Brock and Ryan's first outdoor movie experience.

Steve and I actually got a good picture together...

This gorgeous picture was taken off the deck of my brother's house in Pennsylvania.

2015 Summer Vacation ~ Day 5 ~ Tennessee

One of our favorite places was Goats on the Roof in Pigeon Forge, TN. So much fun and laughter! We got to feed goats on a roof and see a quirky little shop. Link: Goats on the Roof of the Smokie Mountains


To feed the goats on the roof, we bought food in an ice cream cone, put it in a little tin cup on this conveyor belt and pedaled it up to the goats. It was pure awesomeness!!!



The goats obviously knew what was coming in the tin can on the conveyor belt!

We could also hand-feed them on their rock.

They were quite funny and kept the boys laughing!






Steve got in on the action, too!






The best thing at Goats on the Roof was the Goat Coaster!!! It is an alpine roller coaster that we rode over and over.

It took you up through the trees to the top of the mountain and then you glided down using hand brakes (if you wanted). It was a complete blast!! Link for the Coaster: Goat Coaster

Here's a little video of the coaster.




After Goats, we went miniature golfing at a pretty cool place. We sure wish we had something fun like this in College Station.







Brock really wanted to go to The Tomb. It's an interactive adventure where you have to work together as a group to escape the Pharoah's tomb. Link: Tomb Adventure




We couldn't go to Pigeon Forge and not go to the new Margaritaville Hotel! Sure wish we could've stayed there...maybe next time!



We ended our day eating at the Smoky Mountain Brewery & Restaurant. We had a little bit of a wait, so we entertained ourselves in a gigantic rocking chair.



And this is how we were entertained while waiting for our food. Love these goofy boys!!
