Back from Branson

So we are back from Branson. Whew! What a trip! I am so terribly glad to be home. The trip up to Branson went very well the first half, but then the kiddos got cranky and the only thing that calmed them was my secret weapon...my top secret silly songs kid CD from Walmart. Works like a charm almost every time. As soon as they realize it is playing-silence. So once we got there, we discovered to our dismay, that we were to sleep on a terrible pull out sofa in one of the living areas with our two napping children, while all the other families got their own beds and bedrooms! We were practically sharing the room with one couple that had a little baby girl. They walked through our room constantly because that was the only way to the main living area. I could tell they kind of felt bad about that,though. No one else from my husband's family came, so it was kind of like my sister in law's husband's family reunion, if that makes sense. So combine all that with shows interrupted by naughty children, we were so outa there come Friday! The trip home started out well- the boys were asleep! We only stopped once for lunch, and then I sat in the back to entertain the rest of the way. I will definitely say that the lap top movies were a total hit with my two year old. I am glad that the next trip we take both boys will be in front facing car seats so they can both see the movie. That will help tremendously! Well, that kinda sums it up. On with life!
