Girls Trip

We got a mini vacation right after Memorial day with my mom in Branson.  Super D had to work so he missed out this time but we will be going again!  We had a blast at Silver Dollar City!

Here we are after our first roller coaster, the one in the background.

Sugar bug was super excited to go as this year she was tall enough for all the rides!  We sure took advantage of it and hit as many rides as we could.

Yep I think they qualify.

Of course the water ride was fun and needed as it heated up!

Yes you are going to get wet!

Silver Dollar City is not only fun, but beautiful also.  It's an amusement park set in the woods that also has shows and demonstrations of unique skills.

After we were HUNGRY! so we stopped at this neat restaurant.

Kinda interesting walking through a giant meatball! 
Thank you Grammy for a great trip... We missed having my sister and niece there to join us but they couldn't make it at last minute. 
We will have to do it again!

Yikes!

Ok so time as gone into hyper drive again and left me in the dust.  Somehow a whole month has gone by since I posted anything.  I've had a couple ideas and thoughts but just been busy.  So what's been happening?
Well, besides Super D and I working opposite schedules which makes life crazy.  (He's working nights so he's headed to work when I get home)  Somehow we've managed to fit in a quick trip to Branson. I've canned pumpkin, green beans, and jalapenos from the garden. (the only things that did well this year.) Super D got a crazy infection that I will spare you pictures of as it was bad!! Seeing doctor, two different antibiotics bad! Then we welcomed October in with a the big 16 for Sassafras...
So after all the healing and running a month has passed without me noticing.
Ok to the good stuff... Pictures...

 Go Karts!! Please for give the fuzziness as I took this from my Go Kart that was super slow.  I got the defective one. 

 And my favorite... Bumper Cars!

 And last we did putt putt golf.  It was a great day and the next day we got some shopping in.

 

Next post Birthday for Sassafras...

Branson FUN

    So we went to Branson to pick up Sassafras. What a blast. We met up with family, Grammy, Grandma S, Aunt M, and Uncle U.  Super D took us all out to dinner at Joe's Crab Shack.  We've never been there and it was delicious! We all had a great laugh over the bib's we had to wear!

Grandma S was Crabby Pants, while Sugarbug was the Princess!

I'm so glad Sassafras is here.  She was away the last few months!  Much too Long!

Aunt and Uncle, Came out a little blurry on the next couple photos I think the camra person was laughing too much.

Got a huge laugh at my mom's I break legs bib.  So far from the truth of this sweet woman!

Time to Dig in!

We only spent one night in Branson but I'm sure we'll be back.  It is a beautiful town with so much to do it'd be hard to do it all in a lifetime.  There are a variety of shows, shopping, and amusment parks all next door to beautiful lakes.  We spent this trip just checking out all the shops and swimming in the hotel pool.  It was a great time to connect with family and relax for a couple days.  A good meeting place for all of us as my mom, Grammy, had the longest drive being 3 hours away.  Can't wait to do it again!

Maybe we shouldn't have taken the short cut ;) We made it without falling!
