Branson - Day 1

At the beginning of November, we took a mini vacation with Grandma & Grandpa Z and Brian, Jen, Drew, Jack, and Luke. Brad's parents made the trip to Branson before the rest of us did, so on Saturday morning, our little family met up with Brian's family so we could follow each other. After stopping for some lunch, we were on our way! Bev and Darold were busy on Saturday with Kevin's wedding, so when we got to town we took the boys to ride go-karts! Drew and Jack had a blast and so did the big boys - Brian & Brad! Parker and Luke were a little bummed they had to watch from behind the fence, but they enjoyed watching the cars race around the track!

We let the little boys ride on some kiddie rides.

 Parker wasn't so sure about his ride, so his big cousin Jack hopped in to make him feel better!

After the go-karts, we headed to check out the Branson Landing. It is this really cool outdoor mall that was full of shopping and entertainment. They have this really neat fountain show every hour so we checked that out first. Parker loved the music and took the opportunity to show off his dance moves.

Then we watched some ducks....

And danced some more....

 

 

Next, we took the boys to Bass Pro. They all had a blast climbing into this big boat. They could have spent the rest of the evening playing in this thing!

 

This picture cracks me up! 

 

We had dinner at Old Chicago and then went to Orange Leaf for some frozen yogurt! Yum!

 

Sweet boy!

Parker loved his FroYo!

 

And so did Lukie!!

 

After all of our fun at Branson Landing, we headed to Big Cedar and checked into where we would be staying the next few days!
