On our last night at Brandcation, we got the chance to have fun rocking the 80's with our sponsor Flashing Blinky Lights. They provided us with the means to have a super awesome 80's party. We had lots of snacks like chips, several kinds of dips, candy from the 80's and fun party favors. We also had pizza from Flatbread Pizza. I tried to do rainbow eyeshadow. I think I did pretty well. This is my complete outfit. I was rocking the 80's like I was actually in that decade. Which I was but not for very long. I love the 80's thoug because of the awesome music! My children really loved the ring I brought home from Flashing Blinky … [Read more...]
Lumberjack Feud -A Dinner Show for the Whole Family
October 21, 2012 by Leave a Comment
Whew. That is what I have to say about my time at Lumberjack Feud. Cause I was hot by the end of it watching all those amazing lumberjacks. Before we went in to the show though, we browsed the extensive gift shop and let me tell you that if I didnt accidentally leave my wallet at the cabin, I would have bought so many things. I loved the bear hats like I am wearing in the above picture and I loved the Lumberjack Feud tshirts like below and the longjohn underwear with the butt flaps. As we were being asked our drink orders (did I mention that Lumberjack Feud is also a dinner show?) a black bear came out and harassed us. This … [Read more...]
Dolly Parton’s Dixie Stampede Dinner Show #Brandcation
October 20, 2012 by 1 Comment
I saw a huge sign heading down the strip when I was going to my cabin for Brandcation. It was for Dixie Stampede. I got really excited becuase I knew that was on our list of things to do. It looked like an awesome dinner show! I checked them out on their Facebook page and on their Twitter and I knew I was in for a treat! They escorted us in and everyone was wearing period clothes. They were so very kind to us. I love the PR person, she was so likeable just from first handshake. After we got in and took our photo, we got to sit down on bench type seats. I loved the saloon girls who got our drink orders. They even danced to the … [Read more...]
My Awesome Day at Dollywood #Brandcation
October 19, 2012 by Leave a Comment
The first thing I noticed about Dollywood was how very clean it was. We went to Dollywood on Friday of my Brandcation trip. We got there pretty early so it was deserted. We got to meet with the PR reps for Dollywood and they explained a bit about the park and how things worked. We all got maps and said we would meet back up at the Wild Eagle rollercoaster! Then we got breakfast at this awesome place right inside the entrance doors. I had a cinnamon roll that was bigger than my hand. They even had microwaves for you to warm your pastries up. They had an apple pie for sale that was 25lbs! Man I wanted it. The whole park seemed to … [Read more...]
Hollywood Wax Museum Pigeon Forge, TN #Brandcation
October 19, 2012 by 1 Comment
Did you know that you can visit a whole slew of stars in Pigeon Forge? Neither did I until I was set to go on my Brandcation trip and found out about the Hollywood Wax Museum Pigeon Forge TN. First of all, I was kind of scared because I have seen both versions of House of Wax and neither ends well. Then I was excited to see if they had Angelina Jolie and I was so going to take a picture of plain Jane me standing next to total hotness. The first thing we got to do when we walked in was take a picture with the giant ape. We were in its hand and we took one happy, one screaming pic. I liked the screaming pic the best. After that … [Read more...]
Cabin Fever Vacations Pigeon Forge, TN #Brandcation
October 19, 2012 by 1 Comment
One of the first things I got to see on my trip to Pigeon Forge, TN for Brandcation was the cabins we were going to be staying in. Cabin Fever Vacations offered us an amazing cabin that could fit all 34 of us women in it comfortably. My GPS decided it finally wanted to work as soon as I got into the city of Pigeon Forge, TN and it led me to a very steep hill. I passed so many great cabins on the way up to ours, I just knew it was going to be awesome. After I parked, I saw that it had a lovely front porch with picnic tables outside. I got inside and there was so much bustle going on with everyone just arriving. I went to find a bed with … [Read more...]

My First Visit to the Titanic Museum Pigeon Forge TN
October 18, 2012 by 1 Comment
As a child, I always loved reading those stories about the brother and sister who traveled through time to fix things and solve mysteries. That is until I read the one that they went on the Titanic. They had to figure out what they needed to fix before the ship sank and they died. At the end of the book I think they both realized that they couldn't save anyone, they had barely been able to save themselves. It so sad to me as a child because I knew that everyone they talked to, everyone who helped them even though they were strange kids from the future, they all died. Or most of them did at least. Of course those books were fiction but that … [Read more...]
