Spring Break in Branson (part 1)

Spring Break was last week so we ventured to Branson!  Ollie's last trip there was 2 years ago so he didn't remember much and it was Paisley's first time.

Oliver has always been a great traveler so there were no concerns there.  We recently got him some wireless headphones so he was set with those watching movies on the iPad.  He called them his "ear puffs."


This little one was the one we were dreading traveling with.  For several months now, she loathes her carseat.  She hates the straps and will pull on them as she grunts, moans, screams, and cries.  She did this much of the way there (ok all the way there, expect for the two times she fell asleep).


Don't let the cute grin fool you, she is a monster in the car!


We made a stop at Osceola Cheese on the way. of course.  I introduced the kids to the best ever gummy bears and gummy worms.  I look forward to cheese curds every time, but the gummies are incomparable. 





The kiddos were excited to try out their first indoor pool.  Ollie had to see it before he understood what I was talking about.  I described that it is just like an outside pool but it's inside, to which he responded, "That's called a bath tub, mom."




Grandpa and Daddy braved the cold water with the kids.  What good sports!






Oliver and Carter made great snuggle buddies for Grammy as they both spent most nights in her bed.

The first few days in Branson is usually spent shopping at Tanger Outlets and The Landing.  We like to hit them up at the beginning of the week so that we can also go again at the end of the week :)

Bass Pro is at The Landing and Ollie and Pais loved watching the fish.



I think this may be my favorite picture of the two of them from vacation:


Paisley caught a cold (and passed it to everyone, sorry everyone!) the first day there.  She had lots of sink baths to make her feel better.  Also, the giant jet tub was not ideal for giving baths so the sink was the perfect alternative.



Branson has a really good Cici's Pizza complete with arcade so that was a must.  It was Ollie's first time doing arcade games and he used his tickets to get a whoopee cushion.
