November 15, 2009 - Branson

(Click here for pictures)  Everyone slept well last night, especially Graham who was out until after 7.  After breakfast, we loaded up and headed out of town.  The Brocks and Jason shopped a little more before coming home and the Dennies kept up with us until Clinton and then headed on their way.  Leaving Branson, we made a wrong turn and drove by Silver Dollar City again.  Anderson kept asking "why we turn here?" and Reagan told him "this is how we get home."
 
We stopped in Clinton for a bathroom break and a bite to eat.  The kids didn't make it much longer-just to Conway before another bathroom stop.  And Graham was not a happy camper after this bathroom stop!  He did calm down but didn't end up taking another nap.  The boys had already had pretty long naps while Reagan pretended like she was camping (blanket over her head) and doing laundry (folding the blanket).  We were home around 2 and soon it was haircut time.

All of the boys had haircuts and then showers for everyone.  Graham was hysterical because he didn't think he was going to get a shower, he was mad in the shower and even madder when came out of the shower.  We put him to bed but that infuriated him more.  So after awhile, Dad got him out and let him play while everyone else had a nap.  When Mom woke up, she and Graham headed to Kroger to pick up some milk.  

Supper for everyone when Mom came home and then Dad headed out to find him and Mom some supper.  After Dad came home, he sat the food on the table, turned around and then turned back around and Graham was sitting on the table about to eat his food!  The kids played and watched movies most of the evening long and seemed to be happy to be home even after such a short trip.

Graham went to bed first, after taking Mom to the fridge and then the steps.  Reagan and Anderson were able to stay up later and haven't even gone to bed yet.  They are about to climb the steps now.
