I’m a single mom to three boys and I’m also a small business owner. When I tell y’all I can account for every single penny coming in and out of my household I mean it. Having passes to Dollywood and Dollywood’s Splash Country may seem like a huge expenditure up front, but I promise [...]

When was the last time you said, “I wish I had a camera”? Sure, nearly everyone carries a camera in their pocket. But what about when you’re at Dollywood and riding Lightning Rod? You can’t rely on a cell phone at that point! (Also, don’t take any devices on rides, they may get scared [...]
