Branson

We went to Branson, MO for the Columbus Day weekend until Tuesday. Our friends the Loves came with us. Luckily we were able to use the Scates' time share and stay at a really nice condo on Table Rock Lake. We spent two days at Silver Dollar city, where I was chicken and only rode one BIG ride. Anything makes me nauseous since I had kids. And we shopped and played the other two days. Silver Dollar city is so much fun. The kids could do so many things, and had a blast. The days we were there was Farm Days. Josiah was in heaven with all the tractors and getting to watch a cow get milked. Samuel on the Lady Bug Ride

Josiah hiked up a rock wall while we were pic nicking in Eureka Springs.
The leaves are starting to turn :)
This is where we all sighed with relief after we got lost coming home from Branson on a little, washed out one lane dirt road. Thankfully Cuyler could drive the van threw mud and a half missing road. We learned our lesson that the GPS is not always the way to go.
