Update on the situation with pigeon forge snow is on my Instagram stories ( fearfullycreated2) but in short..they initially offered me a refund and then retracted it, and offered a refund ONLY if I removed all of my negative reviews. No ma’am, no ham, no turkey. I want families affected by asd to have that information available to them if searching for asd accommodating facilities. So they can keep their money & I will keep my voice. 👍🏻
I told you guys about the not so fun situations to show that there is no such thing as a perfect vacation. I value honesty over positivity m…and not all situations are positive ones. AND THAT IS OKAY 🙂 we went on to have a fabulous vacation that we are so grateful for! ❤️ I love you guys!
So happy y'all stood your ground and had fun. I've been where y'all are at. It's hard for Autistic people to make changes and we sure don't need people being uncaring towards them and us as parents. Y'all keep doing what you are doing. You and Shane are top notch parents. Love you in Jesus name. ❤️😊
👍
If they don't like what you said then they should fix the problem. That's on them. People who deal with special needs have a right to know what to expect from places so if companies make their money from tourists then it's in their best intrest to make it user friendly. Say it loud and say it proud momma don't back down
You have the freedom, power and passion, to use your voice to be an advocate for your child, and for other families in this exact situation. You are his parent. If you cannot speak loud on behalf of your child/children, then who can? Good for you. Be loud!!!
So glad you left your reviews up! We live in Canada- I didn’t know this was even a “thing” to go to a snow park but we have snow 6-8 months of the year. That looks like it wouldn’t be much fun playing in the snow for anyone in shorts and t-shirts! I wish all places like this would have sensory friendly hour where there are more staff with specialized training and less chaos. They also need winter clothing, especially for ASD kiddos- talk about sensory overload. Get those kids some ski pants and mittens!!!
"First off, you have to love them" that's good parenting right there! What a sweet statement. Love watching your family!
He puts me in my place real quick sometimes 🙂❤️
My son does the same to me on occasion!!
My father said the only downfall to teaching his children morals and religion is now he has little cops to monitor him 😂 Merina is doing a great job!
@@elizabethg7713 best little cops ever! You know they are being raised right’
Can Colton please write a book!?!? His sayings and "words of wisdom" are to die for!!! What a blessing he is to so many of us ❤️
Brought tears to my eyes about Dollywood being great for Cam!!!
So glad y'all were able to have a wonderful vacation despite the "bumps in the road". Your positivie attitude turns everything around!
It was one I’ll forever remember 🙂
Your family is literally the definition of what a family should be like. You can really sense the love, fun, and excitement you all have being together!!! You all are so awesome! Super happy you guys got to make these awesome memories that you will forever remember!!! ❤️ 🥰
I love Colton! Lol He is the happiest little boy. I'm glad to see sweet Cami having a good time as well. Thanks for sharing your trip.
Watching Cammie’s reaction on the water ride put a huge smile on my face. My nephew is autistic as well and it’s wonderful watching them react so lovingly to their environment. They truly are blessings.
It was so nice to see everyone having fun and those big smiles on Cammy's face.
And Merina you need to dress more often instead your favorite pjs. You looked awesome girl!!!
Yes! She looked extra fly in those outfits 😍
Definitely! Shane's eyes must have been on stalks thinking 'oooh yeah, that's My wife' 🥰
You and Shane are the best parents! I felt like I was on vacation with you!
Girl ~ you looked beautiful in all of your outfits, and your hair looks gorgeous! 😊 I'm so glad you all had such a good time! It was so sweet to see the kids having a blast, especially Cammie's big smiles! I'm sorry you had to put up with eye rolling turds! Evidently they must be everywhere! 🤪 Thanks so much for vlogging your vacation so we could feel like we were right there with you! Thanks for all the laughs, I was eating macaroni salad and at one point I about spit it out laughing so hard along with you! 😂🤣😂💕❤️
Merina, u are looking amazing in all those dresses! Also, I laughed so much at that photo from that ride😂🤣😂🤣 I loved the expression on the kid's faces🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I love thrill ride pictures 😄. So glad u guys had fun!
Girl! You look amazing and all your outfits were adorable. So glad y’all had fun. Colton’s words of wisdom should be a regular occurrence. He makes me smile so big!
Your children are so blessed to have y’all as parents❤️
I love the advice Colton gave about miserable people. Just love them and ignore them like shrimp. Lol
I'm so happy for u and ur family! 💓
Wow! To see the smile on Cammy 's face was priceless. I have an autistic son as well so I know how much his enjoyment brought joy to your heart. Some times it just takes them a little longer. ☺️
All of your outfits were amazing!!! So glad Cammy had a good time along with all of you all!!
Thank you friend 🙂🙂
@@fearfullycreated you know I luv ya!!!
I am absolutely 💯 percent happy that you guys had fun!
But, I'm more pleased at the fact that Cameron had a blast! To hear him say "missed the questions" & was smiling 😃 just made my night!
Be well & send Shane over to me for a while. He'd make my Mom so giddy & sunny 🌞 for a day or three! 😆 🤣
Love you all!
What a blessing. My children are grown and I remember those days of family vacation. Those rude people are sad people and they try to make you sad keep smiling and tell them god bless you
These are the wonderful memories that will hold a special place in your heart always and forever….
Colton is your mini-me!! He is the sweetest & funniest child ever!! So happy for Cammie...memories made! Merina, you showed us that our girl has fashion after all!! You looked so beautiful in all your outfits even your kiddos was complimenting you & I can only imagine what Shane had too say...one hot Mama😊 So glad yall had a blast!!
Colton back there being the bigger person, and cracking me up! You two are so much alike! Two of the sweetest people on the planet!
I'm so glad that Cammy enjoyed his self! It looked like fun was had by all!!
So glad you had a wonderful vacation. And you rocked your outfits. Glad Came enjoyed himself and the whole family. Don't let other people still your JOY
Dollywood has so many special memories for me! I'm glad yall enjoyed your time and didn't let those " ugly bugs" bite too hard!!! 💖
No ma’am no ham no turkey! They weren’t gonna steal our sunshine 🤣🤣
I'm so glad everyone had a good time. I love seeing you guys laugh because it's contagious. And most of all, I loved seeing Cammys beautiful smile and to watch him engage in the rides and everything.and enjoy himself. That was beautiful. You are blessed, indeed.
Awwww I absolutely love the Smile on Camry’s Smile the kids and Daddy is haven a good time
Can I just pls say how beautiful your smile is, and how upbeat u seem when you are dressed and looking like a fab Queen? You are such a reminder to me. I have chronic illness and pain so staying in jammies is my go to. But like u, if I get dressed and try even if just for a few hours makes me feel better and my mood is better as well.
It’s so nice to see you laughing and smiling and spending time with your family! Listen to your kids IGNORE those people! They can’t still your joy you give to all of us! Trust me you really bring others joy especially on my worst days!
Thank you, so much for your blessings!
Colton gives the best advice! 😁 You need to frame the picture from that ride-It was great! I would love to take the family to Dollywood. It looks like so much fun! And Merina, you look wonderful! Your kids will have these memories that will last a lifetime! Thank you for sharing.
😂😂😂😂 he puts me in my place sometimes lol
Merina does look spectacular! 😍 Whole family does!
@@deeski3914 Yes, they all look great don't they?
This is probably my favorite video/vlog ever! You are such an awesome family. It is awe inspiring to see how much you and Shane love your children. They are blessed children indeed! I love Pigeon Forge! It has been way to long since I have been there!
And might I add as a side note… Merina, you are gorgeous! You could truly be a plus size model, when you are not in Mom/Housewife mode! 😊
Cams face on the rides snapshot is Absolutely priceless I laughed a lot he’s so adorable
I wish you would get credit for someone watching the same video over and over. I’ve watched it 4 times already. That’s how much I enjoyed it. ❤️❤️ love you guys
Words of wisdom from Colton. He's so sweet, thanks for sharing your words Colton.
I'm so glad you all had fun, thank you for sharing. Many blessings to you all ❤️❤️
Merina! You look amazing and the kids are adorable as always! Colton had some great advice about the “turds”. You have raised him with wisdom and love! Love watching your videos!
Just let me tell you, I would never roll my eyes at you, you make me smile and I’m having some pretty dark days, thank you❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
My heart exploded watching this video! From your husband skipping with your babies to all the laughter! You are all SO precious!! Love love love!!
That was such a fun video to watch! Thank you for taking us along with you! It sure looks like you all had a great time! You all sure deserve it - such a happy, loving family! It’s so wonderful to see!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was wheezing, laughing out loud, hearing about your tales, while in the car! And poor Colton. Colton, I’m sorry that some people are so rude. You are a sweetie! ❤️😁
😱😱😱
😂😂😂
It was heartwarming to see how much fun your family was having. Also, Merina you look so pretty in your new clothes!
Such a fun, family oriented vacation. So happy to see that, you don't much on TH-cam. Many vacation vlogs the parents leave the children behind. While we all need a break once in a while, the children need those memories and experiences too. And GIRL! YOU WERE SMOKING! So beautiful ❤️
So glad you guys had fun!!! It’s always nice to take a little break no matter how long or how far!!! PEACE!!!!!!
YES! The best memories ❤️❤️❤️
u all looked like u were having a blast, and u Merina looked radiant! your hair your make up, your clothes! beautiful!👍🙏
I agree she looks Beautiful/Gorgeous inside and out
Colton, we grown people need to be as wise as you are. So glad you could enjoy your family and your vacation. 💗
Valerie in SC
He gives the best advice 🥹❤️
Love love love Coltons advice....I'd rather be laughing it up with you people than hating on other's joy! Way to go Colton!
I am so glad you and your Beautiful Family had a good time. I have been to Dollywood, I enjoyed it too.I am so glad Cammy had a good time too.My husband has dementia, and at this point it is very obvious, I never knew how different you could be treated, until now. It is good when places and people are accommodating.
PRAYERS
You looked so gorgeous the whole trip Mirena!!! Loved that cover up on you!! So glad y’all had fun!💗
Those babies had so much fun! You looked so cute in your outfits Merina❤️❤️❤️What a wonderful family memory!!!
Hey Merina & Shane thank you for taking us on vacation with you. Merina you looked just beautiful in all your vacation outfits & of course the kiddos and Shane looked good also. Looks like ya'll stayed in a really nice place perfect for your family. Hope ya'll made it home safely bet your pups were all over you. God Bless, Kathy
Sorry people were rude. You have a wonderful family & are kind hearted. Your son is wise for his years. God bless.
Oh my goodness - what a fantastic vacation y'all had! The smiles on the kid's faces said it all - it was so good to see Cami enjoying himself on the rides and the look on his face in the picture is absolutely priceless!!! Thank you for sharing some of the highlights with us - I enjoyed seeing this video so much. Also loved all of your outfits Merina - they all looked really good on you too! Thanks so much for making me smile & laugh tonight - enjoy the rest of your week and looking forward to out next visit.
By the way I loved all your outfits especially the bathing suit cover up...you look absolutely gorgeous....your laugh is contagious and the memories you all made will last a life time!!!!
I loooove you guys!! The smile on Cammy's face just lit me from the inside out!! I'm glad you guys and the kiddos had a great time (snow place excluded) ❤️❤️ I'm showing this video to my sister tomorrow. My 3yo nephew was just diagnosed with Autism and my sister is worried that he wont enjoy vacations and fun outings as much as everyone else. But Cammy has busted that myth!!🥰🥰
Agreed. Leave your problems at the door when you go to work
Merina if everyone in the world were like you this world would be a wonderful place to live! I wish I were more like you!
I'm so glad you vloged it all! Makes me so happy to see all the kids & you all having fun! ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR SUMMER
😄 I missed y’all this past week!!!
It made my heart so happy seeing Cammy smile and having fun with his siblings/family 💕💜❤️💗😘🥰
I LOVED SEEING CAMMIE’S SMILE AND PERSONALITY.❤️
You look beautiful. Clothes really do make the woman. And the hair was on point. I can see a brighter glow in you I think it’s confidence. You rock !! God bless your sweet babies. ❤️.
What wonderful memories y’all are making for your family. Such a blessing. Thank you for letting us tag along.
I can't believe your server rolled their eyes at you. I have been making a living as a server for 40 years. I follow one motto treat people the way you want to be treated. I find this so sad
My new wise words to remember for life: “no one ever pays attention to shrimp”…🤣🤣🤣
So glad that part of your family vacay was fun. I guarantee that YOU AND SHANE made the whole trip enjoyable and memorable for your whole family. Love how y’all interact with each other and the kiddos.🥰
You are beautiful!!!.. I see why hubby was like DANG. NEVER underestimate yourself. Never downplay yourself!! You are gorgeous. Girl Power 😆❤️❤️ Glad you guys had a WONDERFUL TIME!!!
I was so happy to see you guys have such a good time making family memories. Plus, you looked gorgeous in all your new outfits. 🔥
How absolutely adorable!!!! So happy for you all to have such a time love seeing all the love!
Cammies face on that Rollercoaster was hillarious I laughed till I almost peed my pants.....so glad he had a good time
You’re right, Colton! Ignore them and vacation at any dag gone place y’all want! People’s attitudes are their responsibility ! Love to see you guys having fun together!❤️👍
Girl, you are SO pretty! I love the long blonde hair, and all of your cute outfits! Happy summer! ❤
Yall made me so happy and lifted my spirits we just lost our dog suddenly on the 1st and I've been a mess but you and your son in the beginning had me laughing so hard Thank you guy's I love you and your family God Bless❤️
Hugs to you
Thank you for taking us with your family on vacation. Loved everything about it. The smiles and laughter of your kids. Just is absolutely amazing. You look so pretty and comfortable. To see you and Shane being a kid again was so fun. Cammy is coming out more in front of the camera. He is so precious. On the water ride. He would hide his face from the water splash. This video is beyond words of love and happiest.
OMGOODNESS - I caught your giggles at 10:13 on!! ^_^ Love you guys and your obvious affection for each other! This was my favorite part! SO glad y'all had FUN ♥
So happy y'all had so much fun. Thank you for sharing it with us. The smiles on the kids faces are priceless. Love you lots!
Love this video. Girl, you look SO BEAUTIFUL. So happy to see your family enjoying your vacation. Cammy's personality was shining on this trip and it was so good to watch.
It was nice to go along with you and your family on vacation. So sweet to see how much fun everyone had. 🥰
Cammie made me 😁 when he was modeling. Thank you for being you and sharing your life with us.
So glad you all had such a great time. Seeing the smile on Cammi was priceless. Definitely an awesome vacation to remember.
It is so good to see your family having so much fun especially all the smiles on Cami. I just LOVE your family. 💜💛💜
Cammy blew me away this trip! He was living his best little life 🥹
So happy you had a fun filled family vacation ! Smiling faces !
Colton sure is mature beyond his years. What a great attitude , he's been taught well.
How great that was that Cammie likes roller coasters and had fun with y'all at Dollywood !!!!!
Your outfits looked so pretty as did your families outfits.
Marina you and your family make me smile every time I watch. I live with ptsd and don’t have any smile days. You are so downto earth! I agree with you about the tent at nanny’s. I am my happiest with my dog,on the bed. Sending you God’s blessings!
You can really see your weight loss in your gorgeous summer outfits! You all look happy and so glad Cameron had a fab time!
When you get the 🙄 you just do something to make them eyes roll all the way back! 😁
I always make a point to start a super annoying pointless upbeat cheery conversation with them! If I already have their attention then they can have all of mine 😂😂😂
What a great vacation! Sure looked like fun. I liked that water ride you did. So much laughter and joy. Loved all your new clothes. You looked really cute, Merina!
My family loves Dollywood. Everyone that works there is so kind!! I’m so glad your family had a wonderful vacation 💕
We love going to Knotts Berry Farm as 60 and 61 the people watching is amazing. Everyone going in happy smiling and excited but coming out they are crying kids, torn up parents and tired. Thinking back we were there 40 years ago! 🤣
Glad y'all had fun I just love the look on Cammie's face in that picture. Love y'all stay blessed
Had to stop at the water ride! I was totally laughing out loud with you! 🤣 This brings back such awesome memories from my visit to theme parks.
I am SO sorry for the way you were treated! Come to California, we have the best amusement parks, and everybody sticks out.
California would be SO lucky to have you!!! 💜💙💜
Cammy smiling and having fun, absolutely warmed my heart! 💜
I would LOVE to come there soon!!!! I’ve always wanted to visit 🙂
Born and raised cali but now live in Oklahoma but I can agree with your comment. Tons of parks
@@fearfullycreated California would LOVE you!!!
I had to pause the video to let you know to see cammies face on your first ride brought tears to my eyes . He is gorgeous
I rewatched that part so many times!!!! 🥹
Loved the pic of Cami on the roller coaster… I hope you display that one, for sure!!! That pic is AWESOME!!! Go, CAMI!!! ❤️❤️
So much fun! We loved Dollywood too! Loved watching Cami enjoying his vacation! ❤️❤️❤️ y’all are all awesomely adorable!
Haven’t even finished the video and already know I am going to love it. Such a sweet family, so glad you all got to enjoy this time together!
You are so kind 🙂 thank you friend
About every 3 years I take my family on a Christmas vacation, my kids, their spouses and my grandkids, there's 13 of us. I rent a cabin and we do Christmas there. This year we are going to Gatlinburg. We have gone to Bryson City, North Carolina 3 times. I bought everyone tickets on the Polar Express train and Santa gets on the train and gives the kids a bell. The last time we went he even gave the adults a bell. We all loved that trip. So glad y'all had a great time.
Marinna, if I’d been at that resort when you were there, I’d March right over and tell you what a beautiful, amazing family we get to share the same planet with. Just watching Shane skip down that hall with the kids made my heart so happy. Y’all are an amazing example. I’m glad you’re doing doing all the fun things. Can I just say you looked beautiful in that outfit.
I’m so proud of Cami!! I got teary eyed watching him smile and laugh…but watching Shane crack up hard😂well it was contagious! I’m so glad you took us with ya💕I’m so glad that I’ve been with you on your journey all these years🥰 one day Lord willing(come on rapture!) I will see you and your family, my friend and sister in Christ ✝️🤗🙋🏻♀️
Y'all are my favorite family to watch! I love your testimony; it is similar to mine as far as my marriage goes. God is so worthy of praise! My first-born son has ASD. I love watching the similarities him and Cammy have. My boys are 3 and almost 1. I also have a twin sister myself. So, there is just so much about your family that makes me reflect on mine. I enjoyed this so much! I'm going to go binge some more haha.
You look so beautiful Marina, I’m so happy your having a great vacation, Colton was so precious in his analysis of mean people. No matter what your making wonderful memories with your beautiful family.
Omg girl!!!!! That smile on cammies beautiful face !!!!! :) made my evening!!!!! He was so excited and happy to be there!!!!!! Much luv you guys from NC
Oh my! Thank you so much for sharing, the memories those kids have with ya'll are priceless! Love ya!❤️❤️
I love you! Thank you for being a part of this for my family ❤️❤️❤️ it means so much to me!
This made my whole evening. I am so happy you guys enjoyed yourselves. Even with that situation you had, you guys didn't let that impact your enjoyment of the other activities and turned this whole trip into a positive experience and made some beautiful memories with your family. Hugs xoxo
This is the love & positivity I needed today💕
Merina,
You and your beautiful family are so important tome. You all make me so happy when I watch you all. Your parenting really comes through and is a testimony of how wonderful your children are. Colton , Cami and the twins are so blessed to have you and Shane as parents. Ignore the miserable people that roll their eyes at you. We all love you❣️💕❤️I almost started crying when you told us your experience in the restaurant but the Colton cheered me up with his words of wisdom. He should think about being a minister when he grows up.💕
Awww. It looks like you all had such a great time. Thanks for sharing your family time with us. ❤️
You guys have some great memories to look back on! As a special needs mom of 4 myself- 2 children with autism, 1 whos deaf, and one with lupus - I appreciate your honesty on Instagram about your experience!
THANK YOU! I was so hesitant because I never want to come across bratty but I wish I had known before we went! We wouldn’t saved a lot of money and time!
@@fearfullycreated you’re not a brat you’re your child’s greatest advocate ! Never ever forget that- you know many times I was called a Karen because i advocate for my kids by federal law in the USA the ADA and civil rights 504 laws protect our kids and some of these establishments are in violation of their rights- you aren’t in the wrong. I even am studying pre law to become a special education lawyer after my journey and battle for my kids in rural Florida xox you’re their voice, be loud!
@@spiltjuiceboxes Yes! You have to be the advocate for your babies!! Teach them to stand for themselves and when they aren’t able you do!
You all are dressed so cute. Looks so fun. Memories on family vacations will be remembered forever. My family always did a summer vacation and I remember them so well.
Looks like everyone had a great time! The look on Camy's face on the water ride made me smile so big! His smile is precious. Colton cracks me up and the girls are so sweet! Your channel is a blessing to me! You and Shane have done a great job! God bless you all ❤️
