Trip to Table Rock Lake/Branson

The second week in May we headed over to Table Rock Lake for a 4-day-weekend with a lot of my family.  My cousin and her husband own a few condos over there on the lake and they are so nice to let us all go over and stay in them!  It was such a fun, relaxing weekend!!
I feel like all I did was take pictures... so there are a bunch! Enjoy!

On Saturday Drew, my dad, and my uncle Bobby all played golf while the ladies hung out and relaxed.  For dinner we went down to Branson Landing on the river and shopped a bit and then went to the fun Mexican restaurant there for dinner.  Outside the restaurant there is a big fountain show with music and so after we ordered we went outside and enjoyed the show until our food came.

This is what it looks like when the water is going - it's really neat to watch and Pierson was in AWE!

MiMi and Pierson pointing out all the water!

It was a little chilly that day so my mom bought him this cute sweatshirt/jacket and it was so cute on him... The hood was nice when all the water splashed on him :-)

We went to breakfast at a local breakfast "hot spot."  They had a lot of toys for the kids to play with and the waitress brought this bird over that sang and dances and Pierson thought it was too funny...

He was eating cheerios and didn't realize one was on his nose... it was there for a while and we were all cracking up at him!


We also cooked out one night for dinner... it was delicious!

Pierson busted his lip on the coffee table while we were there and spent most of the day sucking on his lip... poor guy!


Playing with aunt Patty

There was a park across the street from our condo that we visited several times a day.  Pierson had so much fun sliding, swinging, and playing on the basketball court!

Enjoying the swing!


He just loves swinging!


Watching his daddy swing, too!

Going down the slide with mommy!


After a few times with my sister and I he wanted to do it alone and became a pro going down the different slides by himself!


His favorite was sliding down on his belly!

Riding the tire swing with mom!

And sliding some more!

And of course he had to play in the rocks!


And on the way home we stopped by Bass Pro Shops and my dad and Drew shopped around.  Pierson, my mom, my sister, and I looked around at the animals and water exhibits while they shopped.

Mom and her girls!


We had such a great trip!  I love family time!  And some time away from work to hang out with the little man was so fun for Drew and I!
