Silver Dollar City and the rest of the week

On October 21st, we took a family trip to Branson to go to Silver Dollar City!!!

It was a beautiful, beautiful day and it was during their Harvest festival so it was decorated so fun!

We saw a chipmunk!

C Girl thought she was going to ride a roller coaster until she saw them!

We had fun riding smaller rides!

These are some of my favorite pictures ever!

How cute!!!

Tim got C Girl on a roller coaster because she couldn't see it!!!

 the little kid roller coaster!

 We had such a fun day together!

 We went to Branson Landing to have dinner at Joe's Crab Shack!

We spent the rest of the week trying to relax and do fall stuff.

I introduced them to Hocus Pocus!

 They also played Monopoly one morning!

 That Saturday evening, we watched our Razorbacks beat Auburn and then headed to a fall Sunday School Social. It was a fun evening and ended with this beautiful sunset!

Why I haven't blogged in a week

Do you ever feel like you have came out of a sick fog?  I do every time I get sick.  Mainly because NOTHING gets done around the house.

Monday, we had a great Memorial Day. It was relaxing and we grilled burgers for dinner.
At dusk, we were fortunate to get to view the conjunction of Mercury, Venus and Jupiter. It was neat and the kids loved it.

Tuesday I noticed that my throat was a little sore but didn't think much of it.

I took the kiddos to the library to get their own library cards and check out books!

Wednesday, we were invited by friends to join them at Silver Dollar City.

The kids had an absolute blast.

I had a lot of fun too, but my sinuses and allergies killed my throat and by the end of the day, I could barely talk.

Thursday and Friday and most of Saturday were spent dealing with pharyngitis and laryngitis.

I could half way talk by Saturday night, but still sounded hoarse.

Saturday night was B Boy's end of the year tee ball party at the Natural's game.

We were treated to free tee shirts, a behind-the-scenes tour of the stadium and the boys on the team got to go out on the field and stand with the players during the National Anthem.

We had cupcakes and cake and stayed and watched the game.

I felt somewhat better yesterday and we ran a bunch of errands, checked out Lake Atalanta, visited some junk vintage stores, and cleaned up around the house.  
I feel a LOT better today and looking forward to the week!
