Mom pro tip: when they run up with a closed fist and sweetly say “Mom, guess what’s in my hand!!” DO. NOT. DO. IT. Instead, RUN!! 🤣😂 Spoiler alert: it was worms. After four boys I’ve also learned to decline when they say “Hey mom, smell my hand!” 😂👎🏼
It was a creek bed and muddy puddles kinda evening. We are thankful for a break in the rain on our last evening here. It’s been easy to pop in to the Smokey Mountains National Park just a few miles up the road. We head to Asheville with the RV tomorrow but Sunday we will drive to see the BFFs in Tennessee. It’s been way to long and my kids are beyond excited to see their besties!
I’m pretty sure this is our 41st National Park or Monument! And the first of five we will visit in the next two months! We always feel a little more alive in a national park, it’s invigorating!
