Spring Break

We took the kids to Branson during Spring Break. Our friends Brian and Lindsey with their three daughters went with us. We spent three days there and we had a great time! We stayed in a resort with a water park indoors. We swam every evening for a couple hours. During the day we went to Silver Dollar City for two of the days and hung out in Branson the rest of the time. We rode the "Ducks," watched a movie at the Imax, Branson Landing, and the outlets! Here is Silver Dollar City...

Of course the Merry-go-round!
Cool picture Dad!
Nathan's favorite... The train ride!
The kids loved these swings! I think they rode them at least 3 times.
We took the tour of the cave, but only got to see half of it because the rest was still flooded from all the rain. It was still really neat. We love seeing every time we go.
Here is the biggest room looking back at the decent into the cave.
You gotta love Sean's enthusiasm about riding the mini roller coaster with the kids.
Nathan and Lena. Best buds!
Nathan is on one of those vibrator chairs. He loved it!
This was the highlight of the day! Katelyn could ride the BIGGEST roller coaster there. It is called "Powderkeg." Very fun! You get to 60 miles per hour in less than 2 seconds. Needless to say, it catches you off guard every time!
In Branson, they have a boat/bus that they call a "Duck" because they give you a tour of Branson on land and in the water. The kids got to drive the boat in the water.
Everyone on the tour sang Happy Birthday to Mom because it was her Birthday the next week. Very funny!

Way to go Katelyn! I was afraid to even ride the mini roller coaster at your age . . . lol!
Sounds like you had a fun filled spring break!
