Silver Dollar City Trip

We went to Branson this past weekend and we went to Silver Dollar City for two days. We had a really good time. We hadn't been in a long time so it was fun. The kids rode the roller coasters and water rides and got soaked! Robert rode all of them too. He's just a big kid! We were going to ride go carts in town Saturday night, but just as we got to the hotel it started raining and it stormed really bad. They said they had trees down and 60mph winds in Branson. We were on the 3rd floor of our hotel but luckily we didn't lose power. It was nice to get away even if it was just for two days. The kids want to go back but go to Celebration City next time. The more rides the funnier for them. Of course after Disney World last summer Silver Dollar City is kinda a let down as far as rides go. They still talk about all the rides they rode at Disney World. Tyler was only 4 then but he rode all the roller coasters but two and that was only because they wouldn't let him because of height restrictions. They wouldn't let him ride "wildfire" this weekend either. He is still not tall enough.

Tyler is taking swim lessons again this year, he started them last week and he is really swimming good. He seems to be a natural at it and we don't have to help anymore, he just swims all over the pool and goes down the slide and jumps off the side of the pool and diving board at the aquatic center without our help now. I am so glad!
