So we made it to Branson, MO last night around 7:30 pm.
The drive up there with three kids wasn't too bad. Trevor did excellent! He only slept an hour on the road but even when he was awake, he was a trooper. And the added entertainment from Tyler helped out alot! The top two did awesome as well. We stopped once in Lebanon, MO to eat at Steak N Shake and feed Trevor. It was a good trip.
We found our hotel. The original room we had booked in the Atrium building of the hotel...hmm....it was okay but not comfortable (if you know me), SSOOO we upgraded to a better room in the Tower with bunk beds for the kids and 2 double beds. Much nicer!!! It took about 30-45 minutes for this transition. Once unpacked and settled, we just relaxed. Scott took Sami and Tyler to go ride go-carts up the road while I put Trevor to bed. (He only woke up once and I think that is because he got cold.) The rest of us ended up going to bed by 10:30 pm.
Today, we really have no set plans which is GREAT! We're just going with the flow. We ate at Dockers for breakfast this morning. Yum!!! While there, an older gentleman took a family photo of us which turned out awesome and I'm a sucker for family photos so I bought one. $15 for it but it came with a cute "negative" frame. Right now, I'm in the room with Trevor (he's napping) and Scott and the other two are down in the Indoor Waterpark of the hotel swimming and chillin' out. Later we may go to White Water or we might go shopping. Or both! Who knows. The heat is ungodly comfortable to be in outside so more than likely we'll be at the water park most of the day.
I'll try to keep you updated of the events that occur during our vacation, for now I'm closing the laptop and picking up my Harry Potter Book 4 and reading.......this is what I call a vacation! A chance to relax and read a bit.
