What a vacation!











In the beginning of August, we went on vacation to Branson, MO, and then to Mountainview , AR. It was a wonderfully relaxing vacation. Not fancy, but definitely what we needed in terms of family bonding and relaxation. We saw a few shows in Branson and enjoyed them all very much. My favorite was The Haygoods. They are 7 brothers and 1 sister that sing, dance and play many different types of instruments. They are teeneagers and young adults with a tremendous talent for performing to a live audience. The boys' favorite show was the Hamner and Barber variety show. It had magic, comedy, ventriloquism, dancers, music and a very touching tribute to veterans. In Arkansas, we visited Blanchard Springs caverns and the Spring itself. Both were wonderful! We also rafted down the white river, which was so pristine and peaceful! The boys had lots of opportunity to skip rocks on this trip, a family favorite passtime.
