More Branson fun! Silver Dollar City.

This was our 3rd summer in a row to

go to Branson, 

but our first trip to Silver Dollar City!

His "fireman" face!

Trent rode his first coaster!!!!

Way to go!

Not scared at all.

I am glad,now dad has someone to ride with!

It was super hot, 

but there were plenty of chances to cool off.

Train time!

A storm rolled in,

so there was not the typical "hold up",

but the boys were glad

about that!

Bub and I

braved the plunge!

yes I got DRENCHED!

School time!

(ahhhh, air conditioning!)

Great times!

4th of July!

We couldn't decide what to do over the 4th.

So, we mixed up the weekend

and did it all!

We finally got to the lake as a family!

Photo Bomb!

This fall, I decided my new "toy"

was going to be a paddleboard.

For some reason, I became obsessed with getting one.

I am so glad I did!

It is hard, but fun!

We did our fireworks in Brownell.

The boys are getting old enough to not be afraid (mostly!)

And even Trent could light them on his own! YES!

Picnic Brownell style!

This guy was hanging out

one morning.

We were not sure what it was, 

but his long stinger was pretty creepy.

On the 4th, we headed back to Hays 

to swim and relax.

The boys formed a band

"The Tree Rutts".

Sounded great!

Then enjoyed the fireworks show.

(mostly) 3 out of 4 of us fell asleep.

I won't name names, but there was one girl standing!

Happy 4th!

love, the rockinryans
