Gatlinburg, TN here we come!

June 3- We left Gallatin, TN and drove 6 hours to Gatlinburg, TN. For a Christmas present, my grandparents decided it would be fun to have the family meet up in Gatlinburg and stay for 5 days. 

Papa decided that he would take us through the scenic route which tacked on an extra 2 hours to our trip! It was BE-U-T-FUL countryside but we could have done more things in Gatlinburg if it weren't for this little detour. It didn't help that we were hungry and papa wouldn't really stop!

 (Pictured above) We were coming into Seiverville, TN (Home of Dolly Parton!) 

I freaked out when I saw this! I could not believe they had a Mr. Gatti's!!!!!! I haven't seen one since I was a kid!

 I was so frustrated because I had sat and poured hours into researching Gatlinburg and I had NO idea about Pigeon Forge, TN!! They had so much interesting places to visit and this is where we spent most of our time at! As we were driving through...I was just in shock and awe at everything....

 (Pictured below) The mountains were SO gorgeous!

 This place was filled with so many restaurants, dinner shows, and putt-putt places! My mom compared it to a drive-thru amusement park.

 Of course, I had to get a picture of this gigantic cupcake! (If you know me well...you know I am obsessed with cupcakes LoL!)

Coming into Gatlinburg National Park...it was SO breath-taking through here!
