Spring Break at Silver Dollar City

Posted by Holly Nelson on Thursday, March 25, 2010, In : Family Fun 
While visiting friends and family in Missouri last week, we spent last Thursday at Silver Dollar City. Our kids love that place! So much that we got season passes for the older ones and we don't even live in that state anymore. But, they can go with family, and we will find a way to get them there to make it worth it. I tried to take more pictures of the attractions. But, it was really hard keeping up with 5 boys and being 9 months pregnant, hoping I don't go into labor! And I did see another...

Silver Dollar City~ Branson, Mo

Posted by Holly Nelson on Thursday, March 11, 2010, In : Family Fun 
Next week I am taking the week off. The kids are on spring break. I always love it when they are out of school! We have so much fun! We are going to Missouri to spend time with family. I am also taking them to Silver Dollar City. If you have never been there, you HAVE to take your kids!! Or even yourself at least once! Pictures cannot even describe how fun it is. And don't forget to go through the cave!
  Here are a few pictures of our times there!

Where the Chickens....



And the children....



...Run free...



(Except for the bird dog while the chickens are out, because there would be no more chickens roaming free!!)



..Where seldom is heard....(except for the 24/7 cock-a-doodle-dooing!)...



...An Encouraging (yes, that's right!) word...



...Because the chickens are MEAN and FIESTY!


 
When my hubby bought me chickens for Easter, there was supposed to be 6 hens and 2 roosters.
  Well, it's turns out it was the opposite. Now, we are stuck with the meanes...

Luke Bryan Concert

Posted by Holly Nelson on Saturday, July 25, 2009, In : Family Fun 
Usually we have our Family Fun Day on Saturdays, but this week we made an exception. Our local radio station, KIX 106, sponsors free concerts in the summer. It's called "Kix on Beale". We found out Luke Bryan was coming. He is one of the boys favorites. Even our little 3 year old Luke! So, we surprised the kids, "Guess where we're going tonight!!!". They were so excited. Ryan invited his friend Mathew Weakley. Who, by the way, will be a dirtbiking star when he gets older. (Google him, he's al...
