Uncle Dustin bought the boys this deer so they would have a target for their new high-powered Nerf guns that Uncle Malcolm bought them. So... this is where I found the deer one morning!
Getting ready to rip some paper!

Silver Dollar City

After pictures on Friday we went to Silver Dollar City. The boys were so excited- This was the most anticipated part of the trip for them!! They couldn't wait to get there and ride the rides. The Fire In The Hole is their all-time favorite ride. I have some really great memories of my Paw Paw Teet at SDC. Branson was his favorite place to go so every year our whole family would load up in the big brown van and take off to Branson for a vacation. Of course, while we were there we would go to SDC and spent at least 1 or 2 days. His favorite things were going to the SDC Jail, to Grandfather's Mansion and riding Fire In The Hole. Oh, how I miss those days. Anyway, we had a really good time and we stayed until the lighting of the Christmas tree and the parade that night.

This is our picture they took when we first got to SDC.

My lil' family.

The infamous jail. (Kamden was scared to go in.)

Tell me again; Does this bridge have a weight limit? :)

Now that is one BIG cookie!!!
Nonnie, Austin, LaRay and Kamden rode the swings.

Awww...Dustin wanted to ride the frog ride with Lawton and Kamden. :)
So...Heath and Malcolm had to ride the butterflies. We weren't sure if they were going to fit but they made it. (I guess you're only as young as you feel!)
Waiting on the parade


It's parade time!


The SDC Christmas Tree

Family Pictures

On Friday morning we had a family photo shoot with a photographer at College of the Ozarks. Let me tell you, the men were SO excited about this...NOT!!!! But, they cooperated and our pictures turned out great. Of course they are on a protected website so I can't post any on here. :( The campus at C of O is a very neat place. The students pay little or no tuition but they work for it by farming and doing other things like that. After our pictures we went to the museum on the campus. It was huge and it was a really neat place.

They are looking at the circus.

Checking out the old car.

"You can take a ride on my old, red tractor." :)

Following in Uncle Malcolm's footsteps...YIKES!

Austin wanted to see if he would bite!

Hollywood Wax Museum

On Thursday night, we went to the wax museum while we were waiting on Heath and Daddy to get to Branson. It was so much fun posing with the different movie stars. We had a ball except for Kamden- he was scared of them!

OH NO! King Kong has caught Austin!!!!

"Life is like a box of chocolates."

Christmas at Branson

For Christmas this year Momma & Daddy wanted to take our whole family to Branson rather than buying gifts. So everybody came to Tulsa on Wednesday night and we left on Thursday for Branson. We had loads of fun and made tons of great memories! We went to the Hollywood Wax Museum, Silver Dollar City, Dixie Stampede, Titanic and of course shopping! Here are some of our pictures. I'll post more later since I have so many.

We stayed in Thousand Hills Cabins. They were very nice!

It's time for breakfast!

Something good must have been on TV
FUN TIMES!!!
