Celebrating and a road trip

We were finally able to make it to Dollywood this past weekend. I am so glad we decided not to go the previous weekend when all the snow came. They had their Christmas decorations up and everything was just perfect looking, The weather wasn't too bad, I wore my jacket most of the time and had a couple of layers on but it's still better than a snow storm!
We went with Matthew's two brothers and Nathan's girlfriend, Jenny.
Seriously, so much fun!
 
Here are some of the tons and tons of decorations...


 




 
We were able to ride the train and I loved the views! They played Christmas music the whole time...it was fantastic :)

For lunch we all decided on pizza. Seriously this thing was HUGE. I couldn't even eat it all but it was really good!
 
 
 
 I told Matthew we would celebrate big when he passed all four parts of the CPA exam. He thought that meant going to dinner at Chili's but I know how much he loves roller coaster so Dollywood was really a no-brainer ;) It was a great trip and I loved celebrating him all day.
 
Also, it was a huge plus that I didn't throw up this time ;) You can read about that embarrassing story here. HA!
