Vacation!

We left this morning for our vacation to Branson. Today we went shopping at the Branson Landing, which has some of my favorite places to shop. We went to Apricot Lane, White House Black Market, and some weirdo techie store. The purpose of today's shopping excursion was to end up finding a present for Noah's dad, but I ended up getting some new shirts...oops. Branson Landing This vacation has gotten off to a good start. It's nice to feel lazy and not have to rush around everywhere. This is the second "just family" vacation we have had. We normally go along with others and it's usually only for the weekend because my husband has had to use his vacation days for leave when I had Kaitlyn and back when I miscarried before her. So we finally get a good amount of time to spend lolly gagging. For the rest of the weekend we plan to just go with the flow and not plan anything too ahead of time. We plan to have a restful and peaceful vacation. Also, I want to put a little plug in for the accommodations we are staying at. Cabins We are staying in a two bed, two bath cabin. It is absolutely beautiful! We walked in and I couldn't believe how nice it was. It's also cute because there's a guest book where you can see previous guest's comments. I would definitely recommend staying here if anyone every goes to the Branson area. Also, the cabins are in the middle of everything! They are only 5 minutes from Wall-mart and the Tanger Outlet Mall. Tanger Outlets The Tanger Outlet is my absolute favorite place to shop. Both the Landing and the Tanger Outlet are outside shopping centers, but this weekend is for casted to have great weather. Tomorrow this should be the first place we hit, but that would be after we go swimming. It's so great just to spend so much quality time with my family. That's why I love vacations. Not because of the fancy things people tend to do on them, but the closeness to family that a vacation brings. I hope everyone has a good weekend!

  1. We went to Branson on our honeymoon and it was so nice to do whatever, whenever. We too went to the landing. It was beyond freezing, but still fun. Enjoy your family time :)
