IN MY LIFE
* Yesterday our family drove the quick 3 1/2 hour drive from Nashville to Pigeon Forge for a 4 day getaway with our extended family. My daughter’s birthday is tomorrow, a birthday she shares with both her uncle and my late father-in-law. So we decided to have a small family reunion at one of our favorite places.
But instead of going to Dollywood theme park, we’re trying two new things. Last night, we experienced Dolly Parton’s Lumberjack Adventure dinner and show. it truly exceeded our expectations and will blow your mind! It’s such a state of the art theater that’s even more intimate than its sister property, Dixie Stampede, and TONS of fun for anyone, but especially when you’re with a group.

We’re going to spend tomorrow at the Splash Country Water Park, but we’re taking advantage of their “After 3, Next Day Free” promotion (more details here) and headed there to extend our fun tonight.
I also hope you’ll take the time to listen to my Focus on the Family interview airing today. Even if you don’t get Focus on the Family on the radio wherever you are, you can listen online here: https://www.samicone.com/raising-uncommon-kids-focus-on-the-family-interview/
