Our Weekend in Branson

He is such a goofball!

We made a stop at the Apple Tree Mall and of course Makena found a guitar and fell in love.

Carlie doesn't play any instruments but we decided she might play the tambourine, lol!

Trey found Mater!

At the Dixie Stampede!

Waiting to go in

This was an old folks tp group from St. Louis.  It was funny because they were so stiff!

Selfie time!!


This was the first time we have ever seen the Christmas Show
It was beautiful!
We decided that we needed a little get away. Things have been a little crazy around here and a break was just what we needed! We left early Friday morning. The first thing we did was buy tickets to the Dixie Stampede. We could only get in at the 8pm show, which was not my first choice, but we took it and it all worked out really well!
Saturday we drove to Springfield to go to the Bass Pro Shop. We haven't been in years so it was nice to see all of the changes.
Fun times!

My girlies

The kids at Santa's workshop 

We were relaxing in the camping section while the boys were shopping.

Trey was trying to have a serious face like a soldier in this one...

Then there is this one!

Fun with my middle baby in the hot tub.

Makena and Trey moved to the pool

Carl made his way in too!!

Saturday night we went to The Promise Land Zoo drive through lights.

Just a couple of monkeys :)

Pretty peacock

Bird

Bucks

This crazy reindeer wouldn't be still so I could get a good picture. He was very friendly though. 

We also almost froze to death riding the Branson Ferris Wheel.
It was awesome...cold, but awesome.

We had such a good time on this trip! We laughed harder than we have in a long time. I guess that just says a lot about how much we needed to get away!

Much Love,
Beth

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
