Wet and Wild Fun


The kids at the pool party.

The train ride, Irish dancers and the Flooded Mine.
Friday evening, Claire (and Landon) attended a birthday party for Claire's friend, Blair. It was a pool party, and the kiddos had a blast! Saturday morning, amidst the threat of rain, we decided to drive to Branson to spend the day at Silver Dollar City. We rode rides and saw a show with Irish Dancers, which was actually our way of getting out of the downpour that started. It cleared up for a while, and then it happened again! It was actually a pretty good thunderstorm that came through and so they shut down the City. We decided to go into Branson to find something to do. We decided on Dixie Stampede. Landon and Claire were both totally entertained by the live animals and fast-moving games that were played. Not to mention getting to eat with their fingers! Claire was chosen to twirl a lasso during one of the songs; she did an awesome job! Sadly, there are no pics of this, the camera battery died before we made it out of the City. It rained most of the way home, and was storming when we arrived at our door. Although we all got a little wetter than hoped, the kids are still talking about the fun they had!
