Branson-cousin-trip!!

(above is Alyssa and me)
My two wonderful grandmas, Jeannie and Gogey, took some of the older cousins on a Branson trip we went to Silver Dollar City all day, spent the night at a hotel that evening, and met up with the other families the next day for a boating day on Table Rock Lake.(I will post pictures of that soon) You know me, I took lots of pictures, and I hope you enjoy them.....

In the car on the way there...

hehe..;) Sorry Alyssa, I just had to.

I love this picture--it's right after we got off of a water ride at Silver Dollar City, and we all look--wet. And pretty funny. It's a good memory.

Me, Ashley, and Alyssa

"Sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters...."

Close to the end of our trip, our poor feet were dead. We found a very comfortable-looking bench and set up camp.....finding ourselves bored there, but not able to move from our comfortable position, we decided to take "artful" pictures ::

Ice cream....it's amazing how motivational that stuff can be!

Ah, a bench--gives ya something to think about you know............?

Okay Matthew, here is PROOF that Alyssa was drinking LOTS of water all day;)!!

Yes! We really got a picture of Clara!!

haha, Alyssa freaked out when this leaf fell on her...she screamed right in the middle of the park....but hey, that's not really unusual for 'Lyss;)

There was a car show going on by our hotel that night--Ashley and Alyssa just needed to have a picture with the cool car!:)

'Lyssy cracks me up....;)

Again, she cracks me up!

What's a big trip without a stop to the local Wal-Mart, right?? That's what we thought, so we stopped to look around--we girls discovered these huge clothes-pins, and, being girls, thought they were adorable.

God blessed us with safe travels, beautiful weather, and a wonderful time!! I love my family....
