Branson Vacay - Springfield Zoo

 Any time we take a trip to Branson, we usually spend a day (or morning) in Springfield.  The guys went to Grizzly's and Bass Pro and the girls/kids went to the zoo.  It was a hot, but fun time.










These two boys were more concerned with their maps than they were with actually seeing any animals.






Feeding the giraffes was the highlight of the zoo trip.






Paisley talks all about how Aunt Sarah helped her feed the giraffes and it licked her leg.

Branson Vacay - Axe Throwing

 Yama and Papa were kind enough to watch all the grandkids (during nap time) so us siblings and spouses could go on a little day date.  I found a Groupon for axe throwing and it turned out to be lots of fun.












Dalton beat us all!  But I got third!


Andy's is alway a special treat we look forward to in Branson.  I tried several different things during this trip... perhaps because I went three different times, haha!

Branson Vacay

 We were grateful to be able to go on a little trip for spring break this year.  With the uncertainty of Covid, we weren't sure what it would look like and what we would be able to do, but we were willing to give it a try and I'm glad we did.

We've been on vacation to Branson many times with Riley's family, but never with my whole side of the family.  We were able to use timeshares from Riley's grammy which was awesome.  It allowed us to stay right next to each other with conjoined rooms.

I was a bit nervous about vacationing with three kids and especially with Eden being so young.  Of course,  it didn't always provide the most relaxing of situations, but it was a great trip nonetheless.

We didn't trust Paisley to hold it when she needed to potty so sometimes we made pit stops on the side of the road.

No Branson trip is complete without stops to Osceloa Cheese (both there and back, of course).



The big jet tub is always a highlight especially filled with a bunch of bubbles.








We tried to go to Dixie Stampede, but it didn't work out.
