Silver Dolar City, Day 2

We went back to Silver Dollar City for another day. Will was up for more rides this time! We went on the Flooded Mine, where you get to shoot at different things!

...in jail
As soon as we got into the car, Amanda was out! Everyone was tired!

Will slept the entire way home! He slept through dinner and didn't wake up until 6:45 a.m. We had a great time, now back to reality :)

Go Karting!

The weather cleared, so we went to play putt-putt and go-karting.
Amanda had the faster car and lapped Will. She thought this was funny!

Will loved driving the kiddie go karts

Amanda driving....ugh!

The kiddie go karts were the perfect size!

White RIver Water Park








We went to the water park in Branson. The kids had fun playing in the splash area. We went down a few slides with tubes. The weather started to turn, so we decided to head back to the hotel. We had fun while we were there!







Silver Dolar City, Day 1









We had a great time at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri. Amanda wanted to ride all the scary rides, while Will just wanted to watch. Amanda and I went on PowderKeg. She cried and we both screamed. She then asked Bill to go on it!
