Eric and I planned this camping trip a little different this year. Last year when we came to the smokies we had planned out a lot of fun things to do but we were pretty tuckered out by the end of the day.
This year we decided to do camping and go tubing other then that we left the rest of the days opened to what we or the boys wanted to do or what sounded fun to do around the park. After tubing we hung out at the campsite had dinner and went to see the fireflies at the other end of the park.
It was this time of year that the fireflies around elkmont were said to be like a blinking Christmas light show. It was pretty awesome but we got back pretty late so all the kids fell asleep on the way back to camp.
The kids wanted to do a hike so we decided to hike the Smokemont loop today. Because the trailhead was right here at our campground we were able to sleep in and get a good nights rest. While everyone was sleeping I was able to get our stuffed french toast made for a good breakfast before we headed out on our hike.
Our sweet Olivia loves to be carried in her carrier so she was all smiles when we put her in and ready to hike! She has it pretty good that she gets to carried so she never really complains about the length of the hike.
Eric and I were kinda surprised that the boys were the ones that suggested to go on a hike. We made sure that we had all our gear anyhow because it is hard to come to the Smokies and not go hiking ; )
