We were able to get away at the end of Spring Break for a few days in Branson. It was the first time we've gone with the passes to Silver Dollar City. In fact, I was the only one in the family to have never been to SDC. We stayed in a condo on Lake Taneycomo and it was both beautiful and relaxing. We watched people fly fish in the mornings and had dinner on the patio at night. We had an indoor pool to keep the kids busy during the down time. On day 1 we ate at Joe's Crab Shack and hit the Landing and wrapped it up with the Titanic museum. Day 2 we went on a bike ride from Table Rock Lake to the Marina and had a picnic on the lake. Day 3 we hit SDC and got our money's worth. The kid's hit one area of rides hard and then Noah got up his courage to ride Thunderation, his first roller coaster. He comes from a long line of roller coaster people so the pressure was on. He was crazy nervous by the time we got to the front but he didn't bail, even though a kid his age bailed right beside us. The day ended with a thunderstorm at 430 so it was a mass exodus. Couldn't dampen our spirits though because the kids had a blast.
Fun in Branson
I have found the way to shop. Jenna wanted to do some shopping in Branson today. After the first hour she suggested Noah and I go do something fun. It's nice to have a time killing partner.
