Branson Adventure

Hey there friends! It's been awhile, I know. But we've been busy going on a...family vacation!!

It was just a short little drive down to Branson but we had so much fun! 

We rode horses. They didn't go very far though. 

 

We went to a fish hatchery. There was some rule about not bringing fishing poles? Who would have thought.

 

We went to the butterfly palace.

 

The weatherman said it was going to be cloudy and rainy but we were very thankful for some sunshine! We took a walk by the lake and Lily found a cat. She asked if we could take it home. 

I don't think Jake the dog would like having this cat around. 

But the highlight of our adventure was the Dixie Stampede. We weren't sure how Lily would do. Sitting in a show for a couple hours with a baby? Yikes! But she did great! There was fire and horses and food. It might have been the first time ever that Lily was too distracted to eat!

After the show we hung out with some of the horses. They were a lot bigger (and a lot more smelly) than the horse we saw at the beginning of our trip. 

On our way home, we stopped by Lamberts for some delicious rolls. We should have scheduled enough time for a nap afterward but we had to scurry home. Apparently a food coma isn't an acceptable reason to miss work. 

It was a fantastic family vacation!
