Jackson and Cooper on our way up to Laurel Falls. Poor Jackson pushed Cooper pretty much the entire way up (almost 2 miles). What a sweet big brother.
"Leaves change colors mommy" is what I heard ALOT from Ainsleigh and Cooper. Ainsleigh liked the pink leaves while Cooper enjoyed the yellow and orange leaves.
The kids sitting on some the rocks they just had to climb on!
The Riggs clan still climbing to Laurel Falls. 
Finally at the top of Laurel Falls!
Jackson just hanging out.
The Riggs family
Ainsleigh and I watched this turtle trying to fit between two rocks for the longest time. Ainsleigh just laughed and laughed. Poor thing was too big and finally gave up.
Dory from Nemo!!!!
Lots of Nemo's!!
A crazy looking crab.
We loved watching the jellyfish. They were so graceful.
A starfish.
The kids with a penguin. We watched them for the longest time. Cooper thought they were so funny when they swam around and popped up out of water.
The kiddos in the tunnel under the penguin exhibit.
"Twin Penguins" as Ainsleigh and Cooper told me!
Jackson perched on a rock posing of course.
A beautiful view of Chimney Tops.
Another view of the stream.
Look at the colorful trees.
Cooper loved throwing rocks into the stream.
Taylor trying to dry out just a little!!!

Having fun with rocks and water.
Cooper and Mommy hiding behind a tree.
Ainsleigh posing on a rock like her big brother did.
Jackson looking for a bear in the trees. We never did see one which really made the kids sad.
Jackson and Ainsleigh
Ainsleigh, Jackson and Cooper being cute!
A pit stop on our way to Clingman's Dome.
Jackson taking in the view.
Jackson and Daddy being silly.
Ainsleigh, Taylor and Jackson on a trail looking for yet another bear.
A view on our way up to Clingman's Dome.
Whew, it was only half a mile up to the top of Clingman's Dome, but it was straight up, pushing a stroller. We were winded to say the least. Jackson wanted to push Cooper's stroller and he did it. Poor thing was so tired!
A view of the mountains.
We went all the way up to the top of this. The view was really pretty.
Ainsleigh looking for something...who knows what!
Sunset at Clingman's Dome.
We went to the Aquarium while we were in Gatlinburg. The kids loved all of the fish, sharks and penquins.

A scary shark swimming over our heads while we were in the tunnel.

We found a quiet stream and let the kids throw rocks and climb around. Taylor decided to climb around too and fell in the water twice!
